When on forums and other web pages full page will not display without resizing the font on the page then once you have resized the font it will work fine on that page but as soon as you click on the next page it is blank again.

Sorry about that. You're saying that if you adjust the zoom one tick -- hold down the Ctrl key and tap either the + or - key -- the missing content fills in?

That is characteristic of a new bug in Firefox 59-60 affecting users who disabled ClearType font smoothing in their Windows settings.

If you don't want to re-enable ClearType, then the workaround is to temporarily disable Firefox from using hardware acceleration. The following article has the steps for that, and the change takes effect the next time you exit Firefox and start it up again:

Any improvement?

That seems to have worked. Why it has a problem from the last version to this version is beyond me.
