[request] Full-screen textareas
I’m wondering if it is possible to create a plug-in that would make the textareas in the Pages, Forms, Style and Plugins/edit tabs go full-screen? Maybe a little button under each textarea, maybe hit “Esc” to go back to normal view.

Isn’t that what EditArea does? Don’t know if hakjoon’s plugin still works though.

Yes, editarea has a fullscreen toggle-button for that.

Re: [request] Full-screen textareas
Thanks but I already know that and I don’t want all the EditArea functions along with all the additional files required to run it. I just want expandable textareas which I would have thought would be a much simpler plug-in, maybe calling on jQuery, but then what do I know?

Re: [request] Full-screen textareas
Just some thoughts: if useing jQuery, you can asign some event, for example, focus of textarea. After this event textarea’s size could be expanded to browser’s windwos dimensions or some else size. Additionaly textarea’s css position could be set to fixed, and it would float over all elements at the page. Reverting textarea styles can be assigned to some key pressing, for example ESC.
