Enlarging an entire table onclick of button

I have a webpage designed for class, involving a table with cells that are 4 columns and three rows in dimension.

My question is, I want the user to be able to click on a button and enlarge the entire table.

I would prefer not to use a "<a href=" if possible,
but I would entertain any and all ideas on how to code for such an enlargement.

You can use javascript to enlarge and decrease size. Look at the numbers in this example and you should be able to get what you want. However it does not increase the size of text or other objects inside the table.

Put this in the head section

Thankyou, Stick,
I'll get back to you a day or two. Have mid term in Web class and need to check out the code for myself.

I'm onto a new subject. Banners that rotate using images(jpeg/gifs)
Been research the web and have not found anything that sufficiently explains the coding process for HTML. At this point i'm assuming a javascript application of some sort.
So, how do I begin to code for such? If i'm linking to another page is it HTML or CSS? If in either one are all of my images, say 5 to 10 are they in/on the same page? Questions like that. Also, timing is an obvious issue. I'm mostly curious, but not required for class. Thanks again. Light.

Anything that moves, rotates, twinkles etc. is considered dynamic content and requires either javascript, php or ajax to make the effect. Depends on what you want to use as to what you can find. Some scripts let the images rotate on a timed setting and some rotate upon page load or reload.

Here's a nice javascript one.
