I am trying to detect if the user of a web application has hit command + (say if they are on a Mac) or otherwise instructed their browser to enlarge the view in their browser.
Is there a standard way to do this with JavaScript?

2That's called zoom. It is not easy to detect. – SLaks Jan 22 '13 at 04:11

Okay having reviewed the various options it seems that by using a combination of the browser's onResize() event and Tom Bigelajzen's fork of Yonathan Randolph's 'detect zoom' script does what I need.
