Quickly increase and decrease web page font size

Keyboard shortcut
Press Ctrl and + to increase the font size (Ctrl++) or - to decrease the font size (Ctrl+-). Pressing either of these keys while pressing Ctrl continues to increase or decrease the font until it reaches its maximum or minimum.
To reset the font back to the default size, press Ctrl+0 (zero).
Apple Macintosh users must use Command instead of the Ctrl key to perform this shortcut.
