Description
**Describe the bug**
Hi guys! As you may know by now, we recently had one of our GeoNetwork sites tested for accessibility and this is one of the issues flagged to us:
> Tester has observed that when viewing the page, with the font size increased to 200% using the browsers in-built zoom or font size adjustments, rendering issues are observed. It is expected that except for captions and images of text, text can be resized without assistive technology up to 200% without loss of content or functionality.
It appears that if you zoom-in the text only some of the form fields don't really resize accordingly. I didn't manage to find a fix for this and I was hoping that maybe you had seen this before and could have an idea of how to fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated :pray:
**To Reproduce**
1. Enable browser's text-zoom only (in Mozilla Firefox this is in the settings, under Zoom)
2. Navigate to a record's page
3. Zoom in the text to 200%
4. See the behaviour of the Record identifier box (the one which lets you copy to clipboard) in default view (see screenshots for example)
5. See the behaviour of the map coordinates in the Full view (see screenshots for example)
**Expected behaviour**
You should be able to see the entire text (so the field should resize accordingly)
**Screenshots**


Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the record page in Firefox with text-only zoom set to 200%, then inspect the Record identifier box in the default view and the map coordinates in Full view. Done means the affected fields resize so their entire text remains visible without loss of content or functionality.
