HTML Appears to be Disabled

[Guest]

I don't know exactly how this happened, but my video card had troubles and I
was told to temporarily change some settings that made things easier to view
until I had a new card installed (wasn't sure if the card was the issue or if
it was the monitor). Now that it's up and working, I can't get the settings
to work correctly. I know about Text Size and resetting Accessibility to
override text size in Internet Options. However, the text on loaded up pages
(not the IE session itself) is large (this box, for example) and graphics
don't load correctly.

Any ideas where the problem could be?

Hi there D.B.,

Try this,

Hold down the CTRL key and scroll forward on the mouse scroll. Let me know
if that's what you're looking to do.

Best Regards,

Thanks for the reply, but it looks like you were answering another person's
request for help, having to do with hiding text or something similar. Did I
misunderstand?

I can't believe I'm such a dolt! This is my first time on this discussion
group and I mistook the purple text that says to click here and unhide the
text or whatever it says. It follows the "D.B.Davenport wrote:"

In any event, I can't see how that would enable me to fix this problem. The
first thing you notice when you see my screen (on web stuff) is that the text
is frequently very large. I have gotten that under control, for the most
part, but something is still amiss, as everything appears to have been
de-webbed, stripped of html or java or activex or whatever it is that makes a
website look as it should. It's as if some global setting was somehow undone
or bypassed.

Anyone with ideas?

This might help....go to Internet Options, General tab, near the bottom
there is Accessibility tab. Click on that and see if the options given are
checked. If they are, then uncheck them, OK, Apply.

Also check if you have any of the Windows Accessibility Options enabled
(Start, Control Panel, Accessibility Options).

By Jove, Jane, I think you've got it!!!

This has been driving me nuts for months. Nobody I know could figure it out.
What I did was uncheck the box at the top of the Display tab in the
Accessibility option in the Control Panel (the Internet Options/Accessibility
items being unchecked made the text huge - I had checked them earlier to get
the text smaller). This box allows you to make text more readable (Contrast).
Considering the problems I had been having, I probably wound up checking that
box way back when my video card was bad and it helped.

Now I can see my band's web page, again!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
