Hi,
I'll try to help with the web borwser text size question, as I know nothing about keyboard layout in WindowMaker.
If you'll try KDE I could help you with that.

In Mozilla, go to the "View" menu, then the "Text Zoom" submenu. Ther you should see different choices, such as

50%
75%
90%
100% (default)
120%
...etc.

or even the less specific options "Larger" and "Smaller"
You should also see that the keyboard shortcuts "Ctrl +" and "Ctrl -" are respectively larger and smaller. Finally, "Ctrl 0" (that's Ctrl zero) is for 100% (original size)

In Opera, there should be a "zoom" drop down list (or combo box, call it what you like). It has simmilar options to mozilla's view menu, several zooms listed.

Note that zoom in mozilla just affects text size, unlike opera, that zooms the whole page layout, images, text, html from controls, etc.

Hope this will be helpful
