I'd disagree. I've had this rant before, but here goes: onclick is not a
device specific handler. Onclick is also activated by the keyboard (e.g.
hitting return when focus is on a link). It's a misnomer, and should
really be onactivation or something.
John,
Have you thought about running a JavaScript font resizer and storing
preferences in a cookie. It won't work for whatever percentage (9-13?) of
users who disable JavaScript but at least it will permit the majority of
your audience to set and return.

OnActivation would proberly be better to use, only reason i state to use
onKeyPress is that validators moan if u dont use it.
