Cookie version: http://nicusor.com/programming-stuff/javascript-text-resize-with-cookie/

Happy to adapt for VB if there is a need.

Good stuff my members are going to love this. as far as cookies i cant imagine why a cookie based version wouldn't be appreciated. That would definitely be a plus. Thanks installed and rated 5 stars from my members.

Would love the cookie version even better. I have your current version installed.

Excellent!

Cookie based would be nice.
Installed and working but it reverts to normal when any link is followed.

I've also moved it and taken it out of the <ul> tags as it wasnt displaying properly (ie8).
<a href="javascript:ts('body',1)">[<b> + </b>]</a> Text Size <a
href="javascript:ts('body',-1)">[<b> - </b>]</a>

In the header template, instead of adding it just after
<vb:if condition="$show['member']">
<ul class="isuser">
add it in between
<vb:if condition="$show['member']">
and
<ul class="isuser">

This will be excellent for us.

I'm looking forward to the cookie-based solution for several sites. I'd like to put it in the footer, would that be any problem?

We are still working on cookie based version. This is justa fun mod. Soon as I get time I will do it, the code is open source so anyone can modify it to suit their needs ;)

Would really appreciate a cookie based version...... :up:

Our membership demographic is 55+ with a lot of members up into their late 70's .. :D

So, an ability to set font size would be terrific ...

Thanks for your efforts ... :)

Yes, a cookie based version would be nice. I'm using vB 3.8, though, so I wonder if I can properly add the feature.

Would the cookie version solve the issue of the text size reverting every link?

From the posts I've read in several topics having to do with a font sizer, that's indeed the impression I've gotten.

So I see, this tool is NOT supported.

There are some differences from 4.0.0 to the higher versions.
I need help please.

There are a couple of methods that vbulletin supplies to interact with cookies. setcookie, vbsetcookie, etc... I just did some quick research to confirm that there is indeed a method to set a variable.

However, wouldn't it be just as easy to set or just store the text size in a custom profile field in the userCP?

Just a thought.

Anyone know whether this works with vB ver 4.1.1?
