[personal profile] fu and I are racking our brains to try to remember what we did to fix the problem where people with Firefox/Mac saw text much more large than people with FF/Windows. Before we delve into Bugzilla: Does anyone remember that one? And if so, how the hell did we fix it?

EDIT: Also, a problem with width of elements in IE7 -- anyone good with that?

Not having IE7 I can't test anything but the problem comes from display: table which IE7 doesn't support (see http://www.quirksmode.org/css/display.html) so I think you need to assign a width to .action-box or set it to 'auto' (and then maybe negates it with max-width for other browsers). Sorry I can't be useful.

No worries! It's... a tricky problem. I've made do with a hackish workaround for now; not going to spend too much more time on it because we intend to remove it (in favor of restyling) as soon as feasible.
