  1. POWhy does the font in these TD elements render at different sizes?
    text
    copied!<p>Here is a simple table with 2 TDs. <a href="http://z5h.github.io/broken_render/broken.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://z5h.github.io/broken_render/broken.html</a></p> <p>On recent Chrome / Firefox on Android they render at VERY different sizes. I'm not clear why. </p> <p>On Desktop browsers they do not.</p> <p>Reducing the ammount of text in the first td fixes the problem. Specifying per element styles does not change the font size. e.g. <a href="http://z5h.github.io/broken_render/broken-styled.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://z5h.github.io/broken_render/broken-styled.html</a></p> <p>Why is this?</p> <p>Code is</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta content='text/html;charset=utf-8' http-equiv='Content-Type'&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>This is what it looks like on a fully up to date Chrome on Nexus 4. Same problem on Firefox.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zzeRC.png" alt="example"></p>

An individual column

Larger individual text columns get their own page to allow for proper reading.
