You can save the file anywhere. My documents for example.
Then go to internet explorer and go to the tools menu.
Enter on internet options.
Tab and press the space bar on the accessiblity button.
You will find checkboxes to ignore various things (fonts colors) on
websites.
Then you will find a checkbox that says format my documents using my style
sheet. If you check that box, the next field is the style sheet.
There is a browse button, so you can browse to your documents and pick your
style sheet. Whatever you named it larger.css or whatever.
Then enter on okay.
But no the bad news is this would also affect your printing.
You can turn it off just by unchecking the box to use your style sheet.
Now, I am sure that html I posted would need some refinement, I don't know
if I remembered all the tags or not.

hiDebbi,
I have not done something like this before in simple words I dont know much
about html, scripting...
What Iunder stood was to make the changes permanent I would have to copy
what I have copied below as it is in note pad and save it with css
extention, but I did not understand where to save this file. Doing this i
hope will not disturb my printting settings I mean if a web page prints on
two pages after doing this it will still print on two pages or the pages
will increase. And if in a later date for some reason I want to delete
this can I delete it from the folder where i saved it?
Thanks,
Sanjay
