There was an IE5 set of web accessories that included a zoom in/out feature.
Has anyone tried them in XP's IE6? Any other source for that very useful
magnifying feature for XP Home?
Thanks.

IE5 Web Accessories:

For IE6, a minor problem is in Images List you need to press F5 to
refresh the blank list.

This problem has always been there:
From a previous post by Ronnie Vernon MVP:

There is a bug in the web accessories.

To fix it, use Notepad to open ZOOMIN.HTM (found usually in
WINDOWS\WEB ),
and edit it to read both image dimensions before setting any of them:

old contents:
....
h = parentwin.event.srcElement.height * 2;
parentwin.event.srcElement.height = h;
w = parentwin.event.srcElement.width * 2;
parentwin.event.srcElement.width = w;
....

new contents (the 3rd line in the fragment above moved up):
....
h = parentwin.event.srcElement.height * 2;
w = parentwin.event.srcElement.width * 2;
parentwin.event.srcElement.height = h;
parentwin.event.srcElement.width = w;
....

Do the same for ZOOMOUT.HTM.

MS states that it will work with IE6, and it does. I use it in 5 computers.
