It's tiny

SN is ok as are most sites but on some sites its really small www.sidc.co.uk is a good case.

How do you increase font size when viewing a web page?

View->Text Size assuming you are on IE.

if you've got a mouse with a center wheel (between the 2 buttons ), trying holding down the left CTRL button while spinning the wheel : works sometimes, sometimes doesn't.

Because if the font is defined as an absolute number of pixels or points in the stylesheet it is fixed - if it is set as a percentage value (like it should be) then the font is scaleable.

Same effect can be achieved in IE by clicking on View - Text Size.

You can also change the overall windows font size that will overule everything: right click on your desktop, choose Properties - Settings - Advanced and under general there will be a Dpi settign for the font.

Here's a another "trick" you might not know : if you've got a keyboard with the "Windows" icon on it, try pressing it and then the "E" key.

Opens up a new explorer window, most useful !

what would scooby do

also if you want to scroll down mega fast simply press the space bar
