Hey everyone,

Weird error which I saw on Opera a few years back, now seems to be happening with Firefox!

I have restarted firefox with addons disabled and this did not resolve the issue.

There is a large white space or gap between the end of an eBay listing and the bottom of the page, see the screenshots below.

Take note of the size of the scroll to the right.

Random eBay listing...

me too, seemed to happen after upgrading Adobe flash player to version 10 something, will check my flash add-ons and see what happens

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: View > Zoom > Reset (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues like you described.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

Does it display properly if you disable the Flash plugin as a test?

  • Tools > Add-ons > Plugins

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Thank you cor-el!

Disabling flash did not work. However, creating a new profile and launching it seemed to solve the problem.

Now to transfer all my data across!

Cheers

May also worth noting, my path for Firefox was "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 7". Now being on 7.0.1 not sure if that had anything to do with it.

Sound that you installed a Firefox 4 beta version a long time ago.

Are you on the release channel?

You can see that in the Help >About window.

Shown to be on the release channel.

Maybe because I used http://nitite.com when I clean installed W7
