Firefox buttons appear to be different sizes between computers

I'm developing a web application, and I'm seeing different behaviour between Firefox instances. My computer is running the same version as a co-worker, and yet a button's behaviour looks correct on his and looks wrong on mine. I have tried resetting my Firefox, and this doesn't solve the problem.

I'll post what these things look like presently if I can.

Can anyone think of a reason why the same page would be displayed differently from one computer to the next, with everything -- well, everything I can think of, anyway -- being the same?

hello scrawl, you can attach screenshots in a reply to your original question.

I've attached the image of what the button looks like in Firefox. I've also attached what it looks like in another browser on my computer -- like a button ought to look. Needless to say, the code is the same, and I can see the button as it should look on a different computer from mine running the same (latest) version of Firefox.

I found that setting and set it to 100%. And what do you know, the button appears correctly.

Thanks very much for your help, this solved my problem.
