Wrong font size on first page load in Chrome

    Hi!
    I have a rather strange problem.

    When I visit my site (www.obsid.se) I always get extremely large font sizes, but only the first time the each page loads. If I press F5 it corrects itself.

    I don’t have this problem in Fire Fox.

    I’ve tried emptying my cache and clearing my browsing history in Chrome, but the problem/bug still persists.

    What can be the source of this?

    Here’s a screenshot of how it looks when it first loads, and if I press F5 it looks correct.

    What’s the URL to your site?

    Anyone got a clue? It works as intended in FF, Internet Explorer and on both Safari mobile and Chrome Mobile.

    Can you look at the site on another machine? The site seems fine to me. That means it’s a local issue, like an extension or plugin in Chrome. Try without those. It may matter also if you have an old OS and therefore not a most current version of the browser.

    Great suggestion. I tried on a collegue’s computer and the same error occured. However it looked fine in all other browsers.

    Is it possible to have some sort of plugin och “thing” on all computers in a network (an office in this case) that creates this error?

    Thanks!

    Thanks for providing the link. Your screen shot didn’t have the URL.

    The font size in your menu is set at 100%. That means it’s going to use the default font size that the user has selected in the browser. Different browsers have different default font sizes, and of course the user is free to change the default size too if their monitor size and/or eyesight requires it.

    If you need the font to be a specific size such as for menus, then you should specify the font size in px or pt.
