My font type changes in Gmail, weird.
I’ve recently run into an issue with Gmail (only on one of my computers) where the font type changes after I click any link in Gmail after viewing my inbox.
When I load my inbox initially, I see this style of font, the standard Arial Gmail font at it’s normal size:
But, after I click on anything… viewing a message, archives or anything else, the font style changes to what looks like Tahoma:
As I mentioned this only happens on one computer, in FireFox. I’m not sure what is causing this. I’ve cleared my cache a few times, tried messing with FireFox font style settings, and also restarting my computer. No luck yet.
Hopefully I figure this out before it drives me nuts… Any input would be appreciated if you happen to run across this blog post and happen to know what I am running into here. But that occurence would be a great coincidence, right?

I’ve got the exact same problem. I can’t help, unless it helps to know you are not alone…

I knew I couldn’t be the only one. It does actually calm me down about the issue a little, thanks Marius!
I’ve gotten quite used to the font size changes at this point, obliviousness is a good thing in this case for me. At least it’s only on one of my computers.
