Not sure what the option is on Windows but Apple's Universal Access makes this very easy. Zoom is one of the many tools for improving access for users with special needs, and you can leave it turned on so that all you have to do to use it is press a couple of keys simultaneously. I've used it no end simply for grabbing the attention of pupils when we're working in groups and I want to get them to focus on a certain part of what's on screen. In your case you can easily zoom in, type the text, then zoom out and get on with the task at hand. http://www.apple.com/education/accessibility/technology/zoom.html Regards, Sean O'Sullivan sean.frankwise at easynet.co.uk Deputy Headteacher Frank Wise School, Banbury http://www.frankwise.oxon.sch.uk http://www.parkroadict.co.uk On 20 Feb 2007, at 15:55, david fettes wrote: > hi anyone know how to make the text size in webpage > search engine boxes bigger.
