Italic menus on Firefox (Theme Twenty Ten)

    I am starting a new site based on WP 3.0 with theme Twenty Ten.

    The main menu items appear in italic, even though there does not appear to be any CSS directive to do so.

    I run Windows, and this occurs in Firefox only (v3.6.3) and not my other browsers (IE 7, Safari 5, for example).

    This demo of Twenty Ten also appears with italic fonts on Firefox:

    I am not interested in adjustments to my browser settings of course; I want to ensure that visitors with typical Firefox configurations do not see the (ugly) italic version. So I have tried adjusting the font-family and font-size of the menu texts, and tried hard-coding the CSS to “font-style: normal;”. But nothing works: always italic.

    Anyone else see this issue and/or know workaround?

    thanks

    I took a screenshot and uploaded it to:

    The menu items (Home, A Parent Page, HTML Elements, etc.) are in italics in Firefox. They look normal (non-italic) in IE and Safari.

    I suppose it is a special configuration issue for me, and probably not very WP specific, but I wondered how common it was, and if there was a way to prevent it via CSS.

    Looks like it might be something within your browser config that’s causing this. It looks fine to me in the same version of Firefox. No italics in the top menu.

    I doubt it’s a common effect and I’d also argue strongly against trying to over-ride it via CSS. Some user might have configured their browser this way because they want it like that.
