Comment	> In Firefox (and probably other tabbed browsers), popup windows can be > diverted into a tab of the existing window, instead of the intended > sized new window. > > Because the compose textarea takes 100% width, this makes its width > potentially anti-socially large if opened in this manner (or if > adjusted manually by the user). > > I suggest that a max-width CSS attribute be added to > /imp/themes/default/dynamic/screen.css in the definition of > #composeMessage, to prevent the textarea (by default, at least) from > being too wide. > > I peg it at about 55em to match the intended width, which also works > out to about the conventional 80-char limit preferred by many > listadmins and so forth ;) > > Another approach might be to put a max-width on the whole page body, > but I lack the CSS wizardry to know what that might break elsewhere.
