Is there an add-on in Firefox -- or am I missing a setting someplace -- =
so that when I enlarge a page with a control-+ that the images enlarge =
along with the text?

Thanks!

FYI K-Meleon (which uses the same Gecko rendering engine) can do this.

Ctrl (without alt) for zooming text, same as Firefox.
Both Ctrl and Alt together for zooming text and images.

It will probably be a little awkward, but FF allows text zooming
natively. Image zooming can be added with an extension:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/139

I don't have one that does it with one step, as Opera does.

when you use the options of CTRL+ or - you are basically
using the same as clicking on View, Text Size. Notice it
says Text. Images are not text, thats why it doesn't zoom
images. See Lee's response for an extension you can get.
