Russell, you can also place a note somewhere on your page telling the user that the font-size can be adjusted by the user if they hold the control key down while scrolling with a scroll-wheel (at least this works in IE, and, of course, the user has a mouse with a scroll wheel.)  Obviously not an elegant way to do it but it works.

Regards, Bob
