Toggle Resetting the Text Size on New Tabs and Windows

SUMMARY: Toggle whether or not Internet Explorer 7 should reset the text size of webpages to the default.


 

You can change Internet Explorer 7's text size. Depending on your configuration, however, when you open a new window or tab, the text size on the new window or tab may revert to 100% (the default). To change this behavior:

1. Click the "Tools" menu selecting "Internet Options".

2. When the multi-tabbed "Internet Options" dialog box appears, click the "Advanced" tab.

3. Underneath "Accessibility" check or uncheck "Reset text size to medium for new windows and tabs" as desired.

4. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.


The above graphic shows Internet Explorer 7's Internet Options dialog box with the "Advanced" tab and "Reset Text size" option highlighted.
