☑PC-Tips and Tricks: Mouse Wheel Trick!


Mouse Wheel Trick!
Do you have one of those handy little wheel mouse? If so, here's a cool trick for Internet Explorer that you'll like.

Have you ever found yourself on a web page with a font so tiny it was almost unreadable? Well, don't strain your eye
s a moment longer.

Next time you visit a page like that, hold down your CTRL key and roll the wheel on your wheel mouse. You'll find that you can increase / decrease the font size as fast as your finger can spin that little wheel. Give it a try now if you like. Here's some small text to play with.

Wow! Look at this small text!

Don't have a wheel mouse you say? Well, there's another way to increase the size of your fonts. Just hit the View menu, Text Size, and you'll get a sub menu that lets you choose a larger or smaller font. **

Oh, one more thing. If you start messing around with font sizes, you may discover the web site you're looking at doesn't display quite right. Most of the time us web designers create the site to look good based on a certain font size.

** "Another trick I've discovered myself is: To increase or decrease size of text on a page all you have to do is: hold the ctrl key and click + to increase OR ctrl and click - to decrease! Try it out.. ok?"

    Will was right - you do love all these html goodies! hahahaha

    You're like a kid in a candy store (I thought I was bad... hahaha). Ok my friend, I can only do it once a week so every Monday I'll TRY to add more.
    I use ALOT of HTML but trying to explain it to others on here is another thing entirely!! So, I'm happy to see that it worked for you!
