Description
I'm looking for an alternative to Text Resize, which doesn't seem to work with my theme in IE. In demo'ing this module, I see that the text is getting larger because the entire page div widens, not because the text is enlarged within it. Is this theme-specific, perhaps just the behavior in Garland, the theme on the demo page? Or would I get this same behavior in other themes as well?
#1
It is a text resizer and a zoom, if the theme is flexible (em or %) and images also. The Garland theme is a fix theme (px). For this themes, please read the help text (admin/help/textsize) under "Solutions for static themes".

Garland is actually fluid, not fixed.It takes the size of the browser window.
The example is a unique, special-case theme, it's proportional width with a stylesheet that says:
width:60em;.This is interesting, and possibly helpful if a full zoom is what you want, but it's a very rare method, and can be hell if you are trying to use any graphical elements on the page.
In all other themes, changing text size will NOT affect page width. Except in extreme cases and long words.

No problem. Set in "XHTML element" for example a "div" and give it a name under "XHTML element class" like "content", if your theme have a content like this:
<div class="content">Resize me!</div><p>But me not.</p>#4
A full zoom for static themes/images in IE is by now only with a new browser, browser add-on or with the operating system possible. But you an now set: "Overwrite text size in templates" and the block title to "Zoom".
