 Does anyone know why the TextSizeWidget is no longer used here.

Is there an issue?  I know that most modern browsers enlarge pages much better these days but accessible  pages are still very important to many users and this seems to be a good control.

Thanks

Ian

Because the skin doesn't support it.

 Your pithy answer may seem clever but does not answer the question (so it is not).
 The question was why is the text size widget no longer deployed. If you use it you would realise that it can be used to good effect and actually opens up some interesting possibilities.
 I am about to start using it on a site that is important to me hence the question.
 
 On a broader note: I have seen lots of one line answers in forum posts recently. IMO they are generally not helpful and may even be counter productive as they often seem rude or offhand.

The TextSizeWidget is probably a Skin Object, and part of a particular skin package. So if you changed the skin, you will have changed whatever skin objects it was using. You'll need to revert back to the skin you were using when you had the TextSizeWidget working, or else modify the current skin to use the skin object.

 Hi Mark
 
 Thanks for your answer.  I think I may have worded the original post badly.
 
 I do not have any problem using this version5 skin object. My question was around the fact that it has gone from this site and so I wondered if there was an issue with it.
 The reason I thought there may be an issue was that I could not understand why an important site like DNN would remove its only accessibility option?
 
 Thanks
 
 Ian
