Using IE 7 & 8 on MS Windows XP Professional SP3, I need to supply buttons on a page to allow the user to zoom in or out (I know they could simply user the browser to do this but......... it’s a long story!!) Experimenting with ways to achieve this, I am having difficulty achieving the same level of functionality when programmatically applying a zoom as appears available using the browser menu. On the very basic webpage below, if I use ctrl (+/-) to zoom the page, the page content is resized correctly and everything if fine; However, if I apply a zoom level by setting the .style.zoom property programmatically when pressing the "Go" button, the zoom occurs but the contained paragraph is not resized meaning that the text is now off the page and, despite setting the overflow property to "auto" no scrollbar is present. Am I omitting a step somewhere? Any help would be much appreciated!!<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><!-- DW6 --><head><!-- Copyright 2005 Macromedia, Inc.
