How-To adjust the size of the edit text box

Q: Can somebody help me with resizing the "edit" text box using the css stylesheets? Which attributes do I have to change in order to increase the size of the edit box?

Q: I am hoping to be able to find an answer to this question also. gp

A: If you using OPERA you can fix it by editing the new.jsp, edit.jsp and comment.jsp files. Just add width="100%" to the textarea enclosing <table> element.
You must change the mentioned jsp files in the snipsnap.war otherwise the changes will go away after restart your server.
You can also use the patch files from my uttoxeter patch (see ThoMo). But be careful I do not know if it is compatible with the current cvs version.

A: apb in the comment area below gives the answer: It is a simple css fix documented at Browser Problems
