Why would you need text-only .. examples? Coupla reasons I see for using text-only zoom: 1) you're using, say, a 1000px browser window. Zooming _all_ increases the actual width of the page, so you have to utilize the horizontal scrollbar. I can go along with that but geeze, if you have to size the text and scrollbars appear then you must need coke-bottle-glasses. 2) some images (low-res) do not zoom well and become pixelated or distorted. But not interested in zooming images, that can be done with other features/functions, etc. 3) what's the main reason for wanting to zoom in the first place? Web author's tiny text that your eyes can't read. Not saying that it is a useless feature globally but I have no use for it ... so far. :-) Insofar as pages like the CNN page(s) where text-only sizing is needed then you have to go with the default re-size.

Go about two Control-Pluses and see what happens to the text under the Baby Control-Pluses ?? Control-Minus perhaps?

It is caused by the way the web page has been written.
What you can do, when you are ready to fill out your e-mail address
on this site, is to first enter the following line in the location
bar and press ENTER.
javascript:{document.getElementById(login-provider).style[position]=relative;void(0);}
After you do this, you will have to scroll down to the bottom of the
main window to find the pop-up again -- AND -- you will be able to
use the main window's scrollbar to scroll up and down over the
pop-up.
I am using 2.0.8 in Limux.
It is the same on other browsers and operating systems.
