Or how about this (from Evan Simpson):

In OFS/documentEdit.dtml change the line that reads:

	<TEXTAREA NAME="data:text" WRAP="Off"

to:

	<TEXTAREA NAME="data:text" WRAP="Off" STYLE="width: 100%"

This should make the edit box expand automatically to the full width in
browsers that support this property, including IE 5.x and Mozilla but
not Netscape 4.x.
