Zooming in Internet Explorer 7 allowed text to overflow off of the screen, and required you to manipulate a horizontal toolbar to view all the information on a web page. In Internet Explorer 8, the text is wrapped and the horizontal toolbar is no longer needed, making for a more user-friendly zooming experience. Internet Explorer also scales elements within the web page, rather than simply magnifying them. For this reason, the zoom feature in Internet Explorer 8 is now called Adaptive Zoom.
