I noticed that this website: http://ions.org/ has a feature on the top right cornor that allows the visitor to set the text size on their screen. Now I know that you can do it on your own by doing something in the browser view menu, but for the type of visitors coming to my site, they would never think of it. Is this something that can be done with Front page 2003 or does this require some speciality scripting etc. If someone could point me in the right direction i would really appreciate it. My skill level is pretty much limited to Frontpage design mode! Thanks so much! _____________________________ " All that matters is what we do for each other" Lewis Carroll

This is the "original" Javascript stylesheet switcher by Paul Sowden: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/alternate/ You need to ensure that you're using CSS rather than old fashioned inline tags to size your fonts (at the very least - preferably for all presentational and layout info). Edit: if you don't feel happy about trying to use a switcher then you could put a link to an explanation about how to do this in various browsers. _____________________________ Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Land Rover project (in reply to winter)

Also - that is a great idea to just make a little link to a set of instructions. Very helpful! Thanks again.
