Hi all,

I don't think I'm imagining this, but I think I once knew a way to use the
scroll wheel on my mouse to increase -- or decrease -- the font size when I
was in my Web browser.

So there are two questions, actually:
Can the scroll wheel be used to increase/decrease font size?
If Yes, how do I do it?

Thanks.

Alan

Yes.

Hold down the CTRL key when using the wheel.

By the way, this usage is not limited to your web browser. It's a
Windows standard, and works in *many* applications: Word, Excel,
Outlook, etc.

Ctrl/Scrollwheel. That works with IE and Firefox, and other software.
