I recently installed Debian 5 04 AMD64, when I double-click on any HTML document it is rendered in very large characters.

I guess one of the browsers installed (Iceweasel or Epiphany) is selected by default but I cannot find any clue as to which one.

What puzzles me most is that I have not yet edited the Apache2 config files to give access to the directories where these files are stored, nor the user etc, and as far as I understand these HTML documents should not yet be available to Apache2 and the browser.

I'd like to know what is going on and how to fix the problem, can anyone give a hint?

Thank you for your help.

You can open a local HTML file in a browser without having a Web server running...

Have you tried holding ctrl and scrolling the mouse wheel?

I've tried it now and it works, thanks for the tip.
