I have a website with many pages. On some pages, CTRL+ enlarges the images, on others, it enlarges the TEXT BUT THE IMAGE ACTUALLY SHRINKS!. An example of a page where CTRL+ does not work: http://www.microscope-antiques.com/acme4.html

An example of where it does work (home page): www.microscope-antiques.com/index.html

There is no Javascript on these pages. It is all in xhtml 1.0 STRICT, AND W3C CHECKS THE PAGES AS GOOD AS DOES THE CSS CHECKER FOR THE STYLE SHEETS.

i USE A LIQUID LAYOUT SO ALL VIEWERS HAVE THE SITE FILL THE SCREEN.

I have searched the W3C site and the net and cannot seem to find an answer. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Barry

I have seen this myself. A work around is to right click an image and open it in a new tab.

This probably happens because the images are in a div container that has a fixed width. The images themselves are quite large and scaled down to fit in their container. If you zoom the page then the containers keep their width and thus the images won't get zoomed as would have happened if thumbnails had been used. The reduction might be caused by those floating elements having their position as percentages.
