Thread: I'm very sorry i was not aware

Give the Mods a break they are trying to help.

Reading the thread shows that the OP is apologizing publicly for inadvertently having broken the forum rules. We all do that from time to time but I haven't seen a blast from a Mod in this case, so as Big Shed said, it must have been done privately.

It should have been left there, but others jumped in to encourage larger fonts, so DJ put up a big post helping to make post easier to read for those that want larger fonts. Even that ought to have been the end but more posts ensued so that the Mods had to show the applicable forum rule and it gets still queried.

So ease up on the Mods as I'm sure the OP must be getting annoyed that his simple public apology is being used as a football to kick the Mods in the guts.

Peter.

no angst here, and I don't really care one way or the other. I was only pointing out that the usual method of enlarging text doesn't work. From now on, I'll keep my mouth shut. Should make many happy, I'm sure.

Thats all I was saying, or trying to say.

Been a while since I've checked but these following instructions should sort you out.


Internet Explorer
1. From the View menu, select "Text Size."
2. From "Text Size," choose from smallest, smaller, medium, larger, or largest. Medium is the installed default.

Firefox
1. From the View menu, select the "Increase text size" option
2. Alternative method: From the Tools menu, select "options," select the "fonts and colors" button, and choose the "minimum font size."

Netscape and Mozilla
1. From the View menu, select the "Text zoom" item.
2. From "Text zoom," choose from smaller, larger, or a predefined percentage value.
100% is the installed default.

Opera
1. From the View menu, select the "Zoom" item.
2. From "Zoom," choose from predefined percentage values or percentage changes. The default is 100%.

Safari
1. From the Preferences menu, select "Advanced."
2. From the "Advanced" menu, select the checkbox to "never use fonts smaller than the selected size."
3. Choose a font size from the pop-up menu.

or simply hold the CTRL key down and use scroll wheel to enlarge or shink

Thanks for your input folks that's way i like this group....
