Mike, it works and that’s what I do. But it’s not a good solution, because then other pages look too big until I go back to smaller font.Earl, I wish there was a plugin for Firefox that did that. I can’t believe there isn’t.

I’ve been using a browser call “Omniweb” (Mac) that allows perferences per web site/page. You can set the text zoom level one time and then anytime you visit the site it automatically adjusts to that preset level.It doesn’t address the base problem, but it’s a really great feature.

Kent,Can you change that font size in using your browser? For example, on Firefox, View -> Text Size -> Increase or does that not work with the Ajaxy stuff?

As I get older I get more and more irritated by this kind of thing. My pet peeves are “artistic” dark blogs, which you cannot read, small fonts and most annoying, those codes you have to fill in to post comments, some of which are a complete guess. We all get very used to ways of looking at things and part of my motivation for reading a site is whether I can read it easily.
