This little box is half the size it could be for the space available in my browswer window. It would very much help if the box were larger. I can understand that some people will have smaller browser windows but it would really help if the text box were to occupy available space.

I think you are using an old version of IE. I am using IE 6 and 7 on two different machines and on my machine, beside the right side bar, the Editor takes full area.
Anybody else having this problem?

I am definitely using IE 8.

My monitor's resolution is 1280 by 1024.

OK we are going to test forums on IE 8. I will also put this in my TODO list.

Thanks again!

Okay, thank you. I am sending you a screen shot in response to your request in the other thread. It will show what I am talking about in this thread too.
