To re-size Text:

Internet Explorer 6 use: CTRL + Mouse wheel (or Tools > Internet Options > View > Text Size)

CTRL +/- (or Tools > Options > View > Text Size) Visitors can navigate using the following keystrokes: H to cycle forwards through the headings
Shift + H to cycle backwards through the headings.
1 to navigate to the next level 1 heading (or a number between 1 and 6 to navigate to the next heading on this level)
Shift + 1 to navigate to the previous level 1 heading (or a number between 1 and 6 to navigate to the previous heading on this level)
INSERT + F6 to provide a list of all headings.

Opera:
