    Magnify Text in WebBrowser Object

    Hi everyone, just a quickie vb.Net problem for you (i hope)

    ive got a web browser that im building for a project and i want to include 2 buttons in the tool bar that allow you to increase the text size within the Web Browser object and one button that decreases the text size. just like what you can do in firefox etc.

    does anyone know how i might do this? as i have no idea, lol

    appreciate any helps you guys can offer

    thanks

    pete

    IE 7 has that feature too. Are you using the web browser control or creating it from scratch?

    i am using the web browser control. i know the short cut for it, its ctrl + middle mouse button up/down. but how could you put that into code so that it does the shortcut without having to use the keyboard.

    is it possible?

    Isuppose you could do it but if its not a key then are you meaning for it to act as a shortcut on one of your extra mouse buttons?
