RESIZING CONTENT IN A CURRENT VIEW OF A WEB BROWSER BASED ON A MINIMUM FONT SIZE INPUTTED BY A USER

A minimum font size to display for a specific user is received, for example as entered through a user interface. The retrieval of webpages by a web browser on a computer system is monitored. For each specific view of a retrieved webpage to be displayed, the text in the specific view is resized based on the minimum font size for the user. Text in the smallest font in the view is resized to the minimum font size for the specific user. Larger text is resized so that the proportionality between different font sizes in the view is maintained. The view of the retrieved webpage with the resized text is displayed to the user. As the user scrolls through a retrieved webpage, the text of each view is resized, and the current view of the retrieved webpage is displayed with the resized text.
