I am dealing with a 23 inch lcd
at high res everything is too small for my eyesight
i am trying Zoom in firefox, when i used it in intrepid
clearing private data or after booting pc it would be lost.
now with Jaunty it seems to be permanent. which is great but i fail to understand what is different.
using the preference min font to 20 is good but most of the time to log into ie my bank to add my password nothing lined up to get cursor in the right place with zoom that is not a problem.
just trying to understand, how this stuff works.

It looks like it is a feature of firefox 3:

This is good info as well:
