I am using .7.3 release of bBlog and I have noticed the
following behavior is Windows IE6:

When creating or editing a post the text entry window
looks fine until you type something into it. It then
resizes the window off the screen to the point that you
cannot scroll to it.

I have temporarily remedied the problem for me by
changing the style="width:99%" to 82%. It still expands
the window, but now, since it starts out smaller, it only
expands to where it should be anyway.

My screen resolution is 1024x768 on one machine and
1400x1050 on my other machine and they both do it
differently, but this fix works well enough on both.

AFAIK, this bug doesn't present itself in Mozilla under
Windows or Linux.

    I have put into CVS a kind of fix.

    I've put width:99% in the admin css file, using a
    mozilla-only hack. So IE will ignore it, and it will be a
    fixed size, while mozilla users will have a full width area.
