| Could you elaborate? What mobile device are you running Gentoo on? What pages did you want it to use instead of HTML? |

| No - I do not run Gentoo an a mobile device - I do run it on a straight notebook. But pages like heise.de, spiegel.de and sz.de jst presents me the mobile pages first (not always - and if I allow cookies/scripts, even temporary, then the issue went away). Unfortunately it is random behaviour. |

Do you by any chance have the User Agent Switcher add-on installed and the wrong user agent selected?
Even if you do not have User Agent Switcher installed, other things to check are the about:config preferences. These are the preferences in Firefox 26 on the machine I'm typing this (which does not exhibit the problem you have):
| Code: | Preference Name Status Type Value
general.useragent.compatMode.firefox default boolean false
general.useragent.enable_overrides default boolean false
general.useragent.locale default string en-GB
general.useragent.site_specific_overrides default boolean true |

Yes.
Althought I do have nearly the same preferences (e-US instead of en-GB) - I just removed it - will see, if that helps. |
