Six Tricks to Keep Your Blog Posts Engaging

Guest Post By Grace Pamer.

Add Stylish jQuery Text Resize Buttons To Posts On Blogger Blogs

I have had a few requests for a tutorial on adding text re size buttons to posts on Blogger.Back in 2009 i published a gadget that allowed visitors to change all the text size and fonts on your blog including headings, sidebar text and post text.But this time i wanted a gadget that onlu changed the text in the posts.I checked out a number of scripts and styles before settling on the one i have for you today.Using some simple jQuery and some colorful icons in a table we can create a stylish text resize section and float them on the corner of posts.The gadget has three buttons to increase text size, decrease text size and a reset button along with the standard text resize icon.
