FF 3.6.8 render of wsj is incorrect

The following site is incorrectly rendered: http://online.wsj.com/home-page

This page should be three columns, not two. This worked properly before 3.6.8. So I suspect that something changed in 3.6.8 that caused this. By the way, it renders ok in chrome and IE8.

thanks gordon

cor-el,

  Wow, it was a long twisty path, but I got it.

The problem was: browser.display.use_document_fonts I had it set to zero, default is one. You can set it to one via options: options/content/fonts/advanced

 select Allow pages to choose their own fonts

And a big thanks for the pointers. I learned some stuff.
