Font Size
Howdy,
I wondered if there is any way that you could make the font size adjustable on the webpages? On some sites I visit, there are options to enlarge font size greater than the average or small font used for the layout.
Thanks! It's almost impossible for me to read on the forum and the now-playing list for requested songs.[/b]

If you use Firefox (http://www.getfirefox.com) instead of IE as your browser, you can always resize fonts. For whatever reason, IE refuses to resize fonts defined in pixels, so you'll find that to be the case on many sites.
There are many other reasons to use Firefox, too... try it out!

Yeah, IE isn't very secure as well. I guess it's quite selfish of me not to make the site "accessible" but it's a lot of work to make the change. Once you get firefox, the keyboard short cut to zoom in/out is control= / control-

if you have a scroll wheel on your mouse, you can press Ctrl and use the scroll wheel to change the font size in IE.

Yes, another converted to non Micro$oft. Ahh the power of tabbed browsing and higher security.nancynohorse wrote:Thank you everyone for the tip. I now have firefox! Thanks a bunch.
So you have Firefox, BUT, did the font size thing help?

I like FireFox less one thing... You either have to accept or decline cookies (at least you used to). The one feature about Explorer I like is the option to have it ask if you want to enable ot disable cookies at each site versus having to go into options and add the site.
I typically refuse all cookies (especially 3rd party sites), but like the option of accepting when the site pops up.
