Yikes!! The whole of TW is suddenly coming out in a much smaller font size. I can hardly read it and am looking for a magnifying glass. Is it me (some local setting) or a general problem?

TW appears normal in Internet Explorer so the small font is limited to Firefox. All other sites are normal in Firefox.

Are you using a laptop touchpad? If so you've probably zoomed out accidentally - easy to do. Hopefully this will help https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fo ... -web-pages" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thanks, AT. :oyea:
Normal service has been restored. I have a desktop and a mouse and must have accidentally zoomed with the mouse. Oddly the instructions on the site you gave to zoom with the mouse did not work but their keyboard shortcuts for non mouse users (ctl +/-) did.

Glad to be of service. I've done it myself and even Bruce managed it a while back. At least you didn't lose the forum like that Enfield White chap :wink:
