You can't possibly be suggesting it is a flaw with IE.

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

You do know that holding down control and scrolling the mouse wheel changes text sizes? I used to have my text size mysteriously change until I figured out what was happening.

3 years of net surfing and I FINALLY learn why my text size sometimes changes.
Of course, I could have just asked someone, but it's more fun to live in confusion and ignorance.

Also of note - if you hold shift and scroll the mousewheel, it moves forwards/backwards in internet explorer.

I think its the only text where Apolyton doesn't specificy it's size.

Try on other sites, it should change all the text.
