Ummm, Eeeeee, How do you this again?

[Garrett Hylltun]

Since I'm using htmltext, I have disabled fixedlineheight of the field.

What about getting a percentage value of the scrollbar to  
formattedheight of the field, then after changing fon't size and  
reapplying the htmltext, then finding the appropriate position under  
the new circumstances.  This is what I was trying to do in the first  
place, but my mind just is not clicking at all.  I can't even  
remember how to get a percentage value of the scrollbar's position  
within the formatted height of the field.  :-(
