This is for everyone whose eyesight isn't what it use to be.I just
found out about this. Thought I'd pass this on.

It's very useful when trying to read small website print. If you hold
down the Ctrl key on your key board and turn the small wheel in the
middle of your mouse, print size will change - it will either get

If there is such a function, I imagine that it is characteristic of
your particular server, unless it is a shortcut to some screen setting
function of your operating system. I have often wished that there was a
way to do that on my computer, but so far the only way is to change the
monitor resolution.

vanbussche...
It works with both Internet Explorer and Firefox. Of course you have to
have a wheel mouse, but no special server.

Sorry, I meant to say browser, not server and it does not work on the
version of Internet Explorer that I use. The wheel, however, does give
you some options.

I use video boards from Matrox that support "Pixeltouch".
With a click on a button on my wireless trackball sitting on
my fat round belly, I have virtual monitors of 1X, 2X, and 4X resolution.
The virtual monitor sizes are then 19 in., 38 in. and 76 in.!
The view port on the larger sizes goes wherever I move the
cursor with the trackball sitting immobile on my belly.
I find other machines crude in comparison.

Firefox Browser..........!!!

Easy to change text size, increase or decrease, with Firefox.
Control + or Control -

IE has a function in the View menu to change text size but
there the sizes are preset, while it seems in Firefox they are
infinite. And in IE the largest text size is often not large
enough for me.

Joe Avalon...
Control+, Control- or the wheel works in IE7.

larger or smaller - depending on which way you turn the wheel.

Gary James...
I like this small free download utility. It only works on IE, but
it serves the purpose.


Sir Frederick...
That is idiosyncratic.
