I do like the feature of making it taller or shorter :-) but it would be sweet to have it naturally as wide as the table cell because I feel as if I am typing into small boxes. How can I do that? All I have is a piece of hard rock candy. But it's not for eatin'. It's just for lookin' through

Can anyone offer a suggestion as to why this should not be changed to say 80 cols for our board and the best way to go about this?

And the reason only the textarea element was edited before is because normal text boxes are input boxes and not textarea boxes. I am a Web Development Contractor, I do not work for UBBCentral.

No that didnt work at all and was one of the first things I tried after getting the tip. Specifying the width of the .markup_panel is what resolved it for the post area as I mentioned above.
