You want the textarea to stretch top-to-bottom? ... Isn't that sort of
contradictory on that page? Given that the form is preceded by an
indeterminate number of comments which are liable to cause the form to
display entirely below the view port... you could apply
style="height:100%;" although I believe you would need to apply it to
the table as well as the textarea and possibly also to the td cell
containing the textarea. If that doesn't work there's javascript --
and since not having the js to resize the textarea won't prevent
someone from using the form it's not an accessibility issue. Though
I'm inclined to think a fixed height for that area is fine.
