I have taken a screen shot of the problem page. I don't know why this has happened but it has happened on Firefox for Mac and PC. It does not happen in the Safari browser.

The top of the page looks correct. Underneath everything is shifted right. This leave 3/4 of the screen to be white. 1/4 of the right side of the page is showing the actual left side of the page.

You can't attach a screenshot to the first post that starts a thread, but you can do that in subsequent replies.


Does this only happen on one specific website?

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page (i.e. no authentication or signing on required)?

It is possible that there is a problem with that web page and that there is a clear:both CSS rule missing that causes Firefox to start the next line at the horizontal position where the previous line ended.


If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.

  • Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.

  • Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
