I have Firefox 34.0 with Windows 7. I have been enlarging web pages to 133% to make them more readable -- by using either the control for page size at the right end of the tool bar or by using the "P" and "A" buttons. All of a sudden, the New York Times web page (nyt.com) appears only in 100% size. I can use the "A" button (but not the page size control on the toolbar) to increase it to 133%, but it reverts to 100% when the page freshens or when I switch back to this page from another tab. I don't have this problem with any other web site; other pages hold at 133% whenever they are opened. What might be the problem, and why might be a remedy? Thanks for any help.

Using the "zoom" feature on websites is usually inconsistent, from what I have seen.

Firefox has a page zoom feature that is supposed to save the userset zoom per domain, as long as browsing history isn't cleared. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/font-size-and-zoom-increase-size-of-web-pages

There's also a couple of add-ons that have their own "zoom" features. No Squint extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2592/ Default FullZoom Level extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965

See if this can help;

NoSquint {web link} NoSquint allows you to adjust the text-only and full-page (both text and images) zoom levels as well as color settings both globally (for all sites) and per site.
