This bug is affecting a lot of Google Group users, and it is also tracked in Chromium as crbug.com/2903 Created attachment 29445 [details]
simpler reduction
I've attached a simpler reduction which displays "hello world" three times with the following font-family's applied:
1) 'courier new', monospace
2) 'courier new'
3) monospace
In IE7, these all display hello world in the same font size.
In Firefox 3.0, the first 2 are the same size and the third is smaller (the third falls back to the default monospace font size in prefs, which is 13).
In WebKit, the first and the third are the same (default monospace font size in prefs, 13).
It's the first case being smaller in webkit that causes the fixed width text in Google Groups to look small.
I'm sure we have a dupe of this somewhere. https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19161 could be a dupe. |
