ZOOM setting reminder ?
Stoic Joker:
Hi, Stoic Joker, I have IE9 but I can't seem to locate your suggested setting. :-[ Is it in Internet Options/Advanced? :huh:
Sometimes... Windows and I don't see eye-to-eye about how to word stuff... so I may be staring right at it. Is it listed as 'Enable view statusbar?-crabby3 (January 28, 2012, 05:58 AM)

Yes, kinda :)
In the IE9 menu it is: View->Toolbars->Statusbar
Note: I only brought up the older versions of IE earlier because IainB seemed to be pondering (aloud) how long the hotkeyed zoom feature had been available.
Stoic Joker:
By the way, I omitted to mention in my post that, in Firefox, pressing Ctrl+Shift+"+"keys together zooms the text only, whereas Ctrl+"+" keys zoom text and images.-IainB (January 28, 2012, 06:20 AM)

That could be quite handy for sites with many/large pictures for reading small fonted comments.

It's certainly handy. I like it because I am generally likely to be more interested in the text than the pictures. If a web page is too "noisy" with pix or ads., then I usually resort to reading it via the FF add-on Firefox Reader. :Thmbsup:
@crabby3: This could be useful info. if you spend much time in the IE9 browser - Internet Explorer 9 keyboard shortcuts
It includes the Zoom controls (i.e., Ctrl+Plus, etc.).

I found it, Stoic Joker, although I think it was another way? :) I right clicked the top of the window and a context menu appeared; and there it was, Status bar, the 4th whatever bar down. :) I clicked it and Bam!, thanks Emeril , there it was in the bottom right-hand corner... just like you said it would be. :D
The only reason I included the IE9... was to save you the time/trouble of having to scroll around looking for what version I had. :) I didn't mean anything by it. :-[

Thanks for the link, IainB, it now resides on my desktop. :) I thought I had found all of Windows' Help pages but I don't recall seeing this one. :huh: Thanks again! :Thmbsup:
