Save Site Specific Font Sizes

[Osiris]

I occasionally come upon a website that uses a font size that is either to large or to small and I usually adjust it with the mousewheel while pressing CTRL in Firefox. If the fonts are to large only a small part of the information are visible on my screen while a font that is to small proves to be quite challenging for my eyes.
The update to Wordpress 2.5 increased the font size enormously. I really can’t find another word for it, everything looks so big and a complete waste of space that I decided to find a way to decrease the font size. I could have analyzed the php code but that would have taken a while, a far better solution was to use the Firefox add-on No Squint which remembers the font size of websites that you visit if you do change it on those websites.
I had to enable the option “Enable text zoom with CTRL mousewheel” in the options of the add-on before I could use it effectively. Once that was done I could simply use my method of changing font sizes (CTRL + mousewheel) and the extension would remember the font size on my next visit to the website where I changed it.
The font settings are by default remembered for the domain which had the initial effect that changes made to my Wordpress admin interface would also be visible on my main homepage. Since I did not want this to happen I had to add an exception in the add-on’s options.
Exceptions make it possible to have multiple font settings for a single domain. This is for instance useful if you want to increase or decrease the font size of a user profile on Myspace but keep the font settings for all other user profiles and the main page of Myspace.
The exception would be therefor the url of the user page that should receive a different font size. Or to use the example of Wordpress I created an exception for the admin interface of Wordpress (domain/wp-admin) and changed the font size of that interface to 80%.
