Detecting Browser Text Size Changes?

Hello -

Does anybody know how to dynamically detect changes in
browser text size settings from within Javascript?
For example, if the user were to switch browser text
size from large to small while viewing a web page?
( If IE, top menu View->Text Size) I'm only interested
in WHEN a change occurs; I don't need to know which
text size setting the user has chosen.

I haven't found any standard DOM event handlers for this
purpose, although I've noticed that the window
onresize handler is triggered - but I don't know to
distinguish text size changes from resize events
caused by the user changing the browser window
size/dimensions - is there possibly detail info
associated with the resize event object which could
indicate a browser text size change? I'm trying to
find a general DOM standardized way to solve this
problem, but would be grateful for any suggestions,
even if browser specific in nature. Thanks for any
help you can offer!!
