Firefox also has something similar now.  In the Swedish
version it's "Visa - Sidstil", so probably "View - Page style"
in English -- and something entirely else in Norwegian?

I'm also addicted to some Firefox extensions in spite of the
fact that at least the version I'm running misaligns inline
images in the pages I'm preparing just now.

Hm, interesting.  It seems that my pages who are in the
earth-colors register fare reasonably well.

Hah!  There are a lot of pages out there that suck for
the dyscalculic!  Why is it that all introductions to
scripting language X must contain some to me totally
arcane mathematical example when all I want to do is
text mangling? ;-)

Believe me, the worst thing is not knowing you can't
do a calculation, but to swap around the digits in
phone numbers, page/paragraph/chapter numbers, prices
etc.  I guess the worst thing when being color blind
is to unwittingly miss distinctions based on colors
that others are making.

BTW could someone knowledgable in Perl explain to
me (offlist) how cookies work in CGI::Lite?
(I don't need/like CGI.pm HTML templating, so I
try to avoid loading that elephant of a module...
