Extending comments
Alright, so first off I have to say that textpattern is AWESOME!
Now, I have a question. I have set up a site where I want intelligent dialoge to occur after posts, so people can reply to posts with thoughtful comments. However, the way textpattern is set up, there are no scroll bars or anything in the comment text box. Is there a way to enable a scrollbar in it or will they always be limited to 8-10 lines? Thanks guys!

Killnine,
If you type more than the allotment given for a txp comment, the comment box automatically adds scroll bars as soon as you go past those 8-10 lines.
Although it would be suggested to style the stock txp comment txt area to be a little larger to accomodate “intelligent dialogue”

/*Don’t show textarea scrollbar on IE*/
textarea{
overflow: hidden;
}
I think that has something to do with it.

It’s your CSS. Try temporarily switching back to the default to confirm.

Re: Extending comments
eta, you were exactly right, thanks for the search through the CSS!. I really wish there were rep points on this forum cuz you would get like 10.
Anyhow, changed it to ‘scroll’ and everything is gravy. =D
