Is There A Zoom Option

[mikenmike0001]

hey, i'm like viewing some sites, and like, the text is way too small to read, and more of it is encrypted, so is there an option in internet explorer or something where you can magnify certain areas of the webpage bigger for viewing or something?

Well you can't zoom the entire page like you can in Opera. But with IE, you can make the text bigger. Click on the View menu, text size, and you can pick Larger or Largest.

Moved to Softwareworld by the way. :)

thanks, fUCK!! i've had this computer for liek 3 years, and i didn't know we had that built in......fuckers!! but yeah..thanks....uh...i've never heard of tha myie thing before.....

and yeah..i tried the view -> text-size -> largest thing, but that doesn't seem to do jack shit, i didn't notice anything changed, it's jus that the boxes on the websites dragged a bit, but the text size was about the same.......

that didn't work, it just highlights the text in blue, but doesn't zoom

Eyes are the first to go :lol: I switched to mozilla for that reason more options for viewing. Gives you way more from 100 to 300 text sizes

Firebird allows you to go into View and it has an Increase Text Size and Decrease Text Sive button. Or you can just hit Ctrl and +/-. I was messin with it and i screwed up the board layout cause i made everything way too big :lol:

If the webmaster has hard-coded text sizes (eg font-size:12px;) it cannot be changed in IE.
