Problem with 'Change Font Size' button?

I clicked it accidentally, and on successive clicks instead of returning the font to a normal size, it just cycles through three different font sizes, all of which are smaller than normal. Is there any way to return the font size to how it was before?

Just letting you know that I don't have a fix for this yet, but I am looking into it.

I had the same problem as Lewis. This was on Mac OS 10.6.8 using Safari. I was able to fix it by quitting Safari, editing ~/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist and deleting the following lines:
Code: Select all
<dict>
<key>Created</key>
<real>407814113.59880799</real>
<key>Domain</key>
<string>.conwaylife.com</string>
<key>Expires</key>
<date>2014-12-04T01:41:53Z</date>
<key>Name</key>
<string>style_cookie</string>
<key>Path</key>
<string>/</string>
<key>Value</key>
<string>A+</string>
</dict>
I suspect I could also have fixed it by changing that last string from A+ to null. Presumably there is similar cookie info stored somewhere on Windows/Linux.

I don't have the problem any more, somehow the font size just changed itself back to normal a few weeks ago without me having to do anything to it.

Glad it's working OK for you now, Lewis. I'm sure there is a fix for this buried beneath many layers of phpBB Javascript, but I think a simpler solution would just be to remove the "Change Font Size" button altogether, seeing as almost every browser available nowadays has built-in resizing options available anyway. Thoughts/objections?

Excellent idea!
