Just changine font sizes is only marginally useful... most users who
need bigger text will probably already have that setting implemented
in their browser... if you think your site needs more accessibility,
maybe you need a completely different, "high contrast / large text"
kind of stylesheet.

Not the best example, but I'm still working on it: http://www.rdpdesign.com

click "High Contrast" in the corner... big text and bright colors,
done server side with PHP and CSS. A lot of other sites have this
rather than just a font-size switcher.

The font-size-switchers seem like a novelty, I wonder if anyone has
actually surveyed their users to see if they use those buttons.
