Is it possible to increase the size of text windows in 4.0.1 (if, for instance, I am typing a long email and want to see all of it at once).

I visit forums that use vBulletin, and when I post or private message within, I like to be able to see all of what I write. In some other browsers, and Firefox too I thought, you could resize those windows (has that little triangle shape with dots at the bottom right). In fact, I just noticed that little triangle is here in this particular text box, but does not ever show when I am using a vBulletin text box. Is there an add-on I could get to allow me to resize text boxes when using vBulletin sites?

Valgt løsning

On the vBulletin 4 sites I use, I have my preference set to the "Standard" editor (the one where you insert BBCode markup to make text bold or italic) instead of the "Enhanced" (WYSIWYG or "rich text") editor. The Standard editor does have a little resizer in Firefox 4 (see attached), but the Enhanced editor does not.

Often rich text editors are not actually normal form controls but complicated editing systems that simulate a form. That could explain why there isn't a resizer already. But one probably could be built. Could be a good application for a Greasemonkey userscript.

Thanks! That fixed it! I've just come back to using Firefox after several years, and did not realize that some of my vBulletin settings would change when changing browsers. Thank you very much for your help!
