    Default How do I get facebook to zoom out?

    I accidentally hit some weird combination of letters on my keyboard and now facebook shows up in my firefox zoomed in. Very aggravating. It only happens on facebook, and it happens even after I reopen it in a newly opened browser. It doesn't do it on any other site, and it doesn't do it if I try it in IE. Logging out and back in made no difference either.

    Try View/Zoom menu. Perhaps reset would work, or just zoom out.

    Are you sure you want to zoom in? You do realize there is a profile picture of you on there...

    Go to View>Zoom>Reset. However, Firefox has a cool feature that remembers your zoom. I find that really cool when reading certain sites that have small text.

    By the way, the way you zoomed was likely Ctrl+Scroll Wheel.

    Use it all the time when viewing Infinitys facebook pic... its like having him right here in my house

    works great for pages with small text too

    Aw. Problem already solved and I was going to suggest standing on the other side of the room!

    You can hook the computer up to the flat screen tv and then things get REALLY impressive
