bbc site is displayed at scale of about 15% from its normal view. All other sites are displeyed normally. Any suggestions?
At some point bbc.co.uk web-site started to be displayed at reduced scale. The whole site is displayed as a vertical column in the middle and takes about 1/5 of the screen only. All other sites displayed with no such problem. Any suggestions?

In case it got "zoomed" down to a smaller size, you can use either of these to reset to the default zoom level on the page:
- Ctrl+0 (that's a zero)
- tap the Alt key > View menu > Zoom > Reset
If that doesn't help, here's a general suggestion:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
- right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
- Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Thanks for this, jscher2000. tap the Alt key > View menu > Zoom > Reset worked in my case. Cheers.
