There is no height set - so how is that constraining the box?


I think you have two choices:

add overflow : hidden|auto (will hide or scroll excess content)


Scrollbars will destroy the aesthetic, so overflow auto is out. Hiding overflow prevents users from seeing the content, so again that's out.

remove the height attribute and control height some other way.


Finding other ways to increase the height is exactly what I'm trying to do ;p


This is the first time I've coded something that doesn't work in
Firefox, but works how I want in IE. It's extremely frustrating.

Good Luck.

Thanks, think I'll need it!
