IE 6+ had the capability to hold ctrl + mousewheel to increase and decrease the text size on the page. However, now IE 8 has replaced that functionality with the widely accepted full page zoom +-. Has anyone found a keyboard shortcut that will just increase and decrease the text size again?

A:
This isn't exactly a shortcut, but it can be accomplished from the keyboard.
- ALT-V will bring up the View menu
- "x" will bring up the Text size submenu
- Up and down arrow keys choose the size
- "Enter" selects.
This works even if the menu bar isn't visible.

thanks for the quick response, but hoping for something with far less keypresses.

Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that's all you've got if you don't like the snazzy "full-page zoom" bug, er... I mean, feature.
