Hi Evelyn,

It's also worth noting that IE doesn't change the size of the text when the
webmaster explicitly defines it. This is so the page appears the way the
webmaster intended.

Evelyn-

This works for me with regards to IE web page text size and you might give
it a try. On the IE toolbar go to Tools>Internet Options>Click
Accessibility Button at bottom>Put a tick in "Ignore font size on specified
web page." Then you can use your mouse scroll button and control to
rheostat or adjust text size. Rarely, you'll get overlap on a web page,
and I mean rarely but I find this far more effective than messing with
View>Text Size which for a lot of people is consistently inconsistent.
