Default TEXT SIZE CHANGES!


For some reason, every once in a while.....maybe several times a week, the
text size in the view menu on the browser changes to medium. I want it to
stay at "Larger." How can I default the settings ti stabilize this problem?

Thanks,

Marcus

For HTML-formatted mails? If so, go into Internet Explorer, View -> Text
menu. Something has to render the HTML document, and IE is used for that.

If IE-View-Text Size does not stick....

---solution 1
If you are using Eudora 4.2 or greater then use Tools-Options-Viewing
Mail and uncheck "Use Microsoft's viewer"
It is Eudora that is setting the IE text size and unchecking that
option will stop it.

The key that Eudora 4.x will change is this:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\International\Scripts\3]
"IEFontSize"=hex:02,00,00,00

---solution 2
In Outlook 2000 go to Tools/Options/Mail Format/Fonts/International
Fonts, and for each font
change the "Font Size" entry to your desired size.

And you couldn't find the menu described in my earlier post when you were
told to navigate through IE's menus?

I change the setting in view to "larger" but it occasionally defaults to
medium. This has no bearing on OE e-Mail

Ah, so you did find the menu in IE to change font size. If it is getting
changed then it appears you are visiting sites that change the font setting.
Did you complain to the webmasters at those sites? Did you install any
add-ons to IE? Until then, and if you cannot survive without visiting those
rude sites, you could disable Javascript in IE or put the rude sites in the
Restricted Sites security zone (at its default High level) which disables
Javascript.

What will disabling java script result in? I imagine it will knock out
access to certain Active X functions?

You don't know what are Javascript and ActiveX, so stop equating objects for
which you have no knowledge.
