I zoomed all the way from 75% to 400%. Text stays in the frame and the page looks fine.:)

I checked the page in Fire Fox and it looked the same for me at all zoom settings.:) What screen resolution are you running? I'm at 1600x900. The one thing I did see was that it appeared that you are doing multiple returns at the end of you paragraphs for spacing. This may be causing what your seeing but I'm not seeing any change in text position at all.

Edit
I don't see an Iframe in the code.:)

Hi Eric,

Thanks so much for your great response. That's really good news as I hope it means not many people are seeing the problem I'm seeing. My resolution is 1920x1080 - do you think that has something to do with it?

I posted a picture of what I'm seeing, I hope that helps!

Thanks again,
Alexia

I was able to get on a pc with 1680 x 1050 and it was still good at all zoom levels. Did you try dropping your screen resolution to see if it made a difference?

Wow! I just tried it at 1600x900 and it was worse (see attached). I'm using FireFox 3.6.13. How about you?

I tried it in IE 8 and while it wasn't as bad, the text is still larger than intended and is spilling into some other objects.

Again I'm glad that it's hard to reproduce in that it means most people are not seeing it, but I'd love to know how to prevent it!

I just got done looking at it on a pc that had 1920x1080. It was good at all zoom levels.

I figured it out! I had "Zoom Text Only" checked on the View menu. Duh!!!

Thanks again for your persistent patience. Jacques would be proud.

With gratitude,
Alexia
