On some web sites (ie IL. lottery) some lines are over typed - why?
When I go to a web site (not all but some) ie http://www.illinoislottery.com/en-us/home.html
If I scroll down to lucky numbers, in box labeled mega and lotto next day and extra shot are over typed. Almost like there was a CR and no line feed. This problem also happens on other web sites but not all web sites.

They're fine here, can you take a screenshot and attach it so we can guide you, please?
Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
- Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.
Mahdi,

Hope this helps and thank you again.

I have concerns regarding loosing Extensions, and some Preferences.
I see, I compared your screenshot with my view, It seems your default font size is causing this, I guess the website's developer didn't specify a font size for those texts so your Firefox's font size is messing around.
Two options:
Decrease your Firefox's default font size:

Install Stylish add-on and add an style for the Lottery to decrease those texts' sizes:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/
Add new style:
- #games { font-size : 14px !important }
increase / decrease '14px' to your desired font size.
Hope it helps.

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" in case the current setting is causing problems.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.
You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

- NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/
Et al,
I have tried your easiest suggestion and changing font size does work.
However you kids (I was selling to Apple before it went public) most likely have great eyes (for now). I may have to endure for awhile.
On the other side I may try some of your other suggestions.
Thank you and have a great weekend. Regards… Steve
