Apolyton keeps changing my text size
For some reason, when posting, my View > Text Size (IE 6)occasionally gets reset to largest. Which is wierd. Anyone have any ideas?

It happens to me to, but i don't think it's poly related, it happens at other forums as well for me.

You can't possibly be suggesting it is a flaw with IE.

You do know that holding down control and scrolling the mouse wheel changes text sizes? I used to have my text size mysteriously change until I figured out what was happening.

3 years of net surfing and I FINALLY learn why my text size sometimes changes.
Of course, I could have just asked someone, but it's more fun to live in confusion and ignorance.

Also of note - if you hold shift and scroll the mousewheel, it moves forwards/backwards in internet explorer.

Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down. Text goes up, text goes down.

That could keep me amused for quite a while.

I think its the only text where Apolyton doesn't specificy it's size.

Try on other sites, it should change all the text.
