Mozilla fixes an 18-year-old Firefox bug

Mozilla fixed an 18-year-old Firefox bug. Bug 290125 was first reported on April 12, 2005. The problem is related to Firefox rendering text with the ::first character CSS pseudo-element. The Gecko engine used by the browser ignores any declared line height and inherits the line of the parent box high. The issue has been classified as low priority and will not be fixed until December 20, 2022, when Firefox 110 will include the updated code. The latest stable version of Firefox is currently 108, and 110 is expected to be released in February 2023.
