<CODE><CODE>

I've come along a strange behaviour (bug?) in the Mozilla/Firefox
browsers. It does not happen in Internet Explorer.

When I have *disabled* the option "Allow pages to choose
their own fonts" and a page does specify a font-family for
TT, CODE, PRE, etc., then Mozilla/Firefox displays such text
no longer in my own preferred monospaced typeface but in
my preferred proportional typeface.

Only when I write <code><code class=...> with double CODE
element, I get the monospaced font *always*.

Example:

With any luck this ancient bug will be fixed by the time Gecko 1.9 goes gold:
