there are scripts out there so visitors can click and add your site to their
bookmarks and you could probably do a window.resize() but I personally don't
like anyone messing with my settings. I have my browser set to size that is
comfortable for me and fits into how I use my desktop. Any sites that mess with
or try to mess with my settings I don't go back to.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> BUT in some cases, it is
possible to manipulate items which can be selected in the IE menu, e.g.
"Bookmark this" or "Full Screen". I wonder if there's a hack for
this...</FONT></DIV>

<P><FONT size=2>Hi there,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>Curious to know if there is any way using Javascript or
other language to </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>force a TEXT SIZE (PC) or TEXT
ZOOM (Mac) setting in a user's web browser?</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>In particular, I'd like to do the following:</FONT> </P>
<P> <FONT size=2>If user = PC and
browser = IE</FONT> <BR>
<FONT size=2>set TEXT SIZE to
SMALLEST</FONT> </P>
<P> <FONT size=2>else if user = PC
and browser = NN</FONT> <BR>
<FONT size=2>set TEXT SIZE to
75%</FONT> </P>
<P> <FONT size=2>else if user =
Mac and browser = IE</FONT> <BR>
<FONT size=2>set TEXT SIZE to
80%</FONT> </P>
<P> <FONT size=2>else if user =
Mac and browser = NN</FONT> <BR>
<FONT size=2>set TEXT SIZE to
75%</FONT> </P><BR>
<P><FONT size=2>NOTE: I'm already using style sheets throughout, but those
settings get </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>overridden by the end user's browser
default font settings.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>Thanks in advance.</FONT>
