I can't find the setting where I can have a column of text on a web page fit to screen when I make the text larger. I did this with my EVO so I know there is a setting somewhere for this... or maybe I need to use a different mobile browser?

It seems to be a feature in HTC phones but not Samsung (at least with current phones) , I too would love this feature. It might be possible if you have root and have the know how to replace the s3 browser with a stock Android browser but I'm not 100% sure.

The best solution I've found using the stock browser is... Browser > Menu > Settings > Advanced > Auto Fit Page.

I didn't realize the browser menu had more options that could be scrolled down to... Nevertheless, I set to Auto Fit Page and did not notice a change. If I make a column of text bigger I still need to scroll right/left to read.

One more step, I went to Browser > Menu > Settings > Accessibility > Scale Text Up and Down and made the default webpage text bigger, this helped. Text is readable but not as nice as sizing webpage text on the fly.
