jeffmc: First, you are using a version of Firefox that has been superceded/superseded and is no longer supported. The current version of Firefox if 6.0.2; you are using version 5.0. Consider upgrading.



If you are using the Firefox button instead of the Menu Bar, you will not see "View" at the top of the browser window or on the Firefox button menu.

  • You can temporarily display the Menu Bar by pressing the ALT key or the F10 key and make the selection from the temporarily displayed Menu Bar; View > Zoom
  • You can instead, use ALT+V+Z to get to the Zoom settings
  • You can use CTRL++ to zoom in, CTRL+- to zoom out, CTRL+0 (<--that is a zero) to reset the zoom to 100%
  • See --> Page Zoom and Text Zoom

Go to top of the page and find "View" . . . you'll find Zoom in this menu. :-)

I have always had the "Toolbars" set for both Menu and "Navigation" buttons. The "View" drop down menu is always visible and zoom is under View.

You can also hit CTRL + to zoom in. CTRL - to zoom out. CTRL 0 to reset.
