how to make this page bigger
I use safari and firefox to surf the web so I am not sure if this works with all browsers but if you press apple key and + you can make this page bigger- well the font size bigger. This I asume works on a PC if you use control key and + or indeed minus to make it smaller.

Firefox on the PC still uses the CTRL and + or - keys (or mouse scroll button) to change text size, as does Internet Explorer 6.
With Internet Explorer 7, holding down the CTRL key and pressing + or - zooms in and out (or holding CTRL while moving scroll wheel on mouse), difference being that the graphics zoom in and out too, not just the text size. There is a indicator at bottom right corner to show zoom level.

Nice one!! Thanks Jason.
F11 on a windows system will give you full screen viewing too - wont' affect text size or anything but will allow you to see a bit more at the top and bottom of the page. F11 again to resume to normal view.

Firefox users:
Install the All-In-One Gestures extension. With the mouse over an image, hold down the right button and draw an anti-clockwise square, starting at bottom left. The image will double in size.
Install the Custom Buttons extension, and make your own toolbar buttons. Then visit this thread for dozens of different codes people have written for it, including Resize Text in this post (click on the Resize Text link - it'll downlad the code into the Custom Buttons extension). Very useful for those of us who refuse to admit we need to wear glasses.
