The magnification is great for when you forget your glasses and can make out the letters!

That is a great tool, I teached my parents to use it and it helps them a lot because of the tired eyes!

Have you seen any issues with accessibility keys and dotnetnuke? We’ve managed to get the access keys working for every browser but IE 7.

Any thoughts?

Sad to say that I do not own a Mac (Jacob, are you reading this?) – so I haven’t tried out Safari. Also nice to hear Opera has been leading the team on this one.

When I showed this to a colleague he said “Wonder who they stole that from”. Now we know :)

I agree with Jesper.
I was quite amazed when I first saw it in Opera and that’s something I miss in Firefox (2.0 doesn’t come with it either) so, I’m pleased with that feature in IE7.
It doesn’t mean that I will browse with IE7 of course! It’s still far from opera or Firefox.

That feature has been in Opera for loooong time. Beside that does Mac OS X have a feature where you can zoom in where the mouse is, and the zoom is followed when you move the mouse.
