I just tried it on the site and the resizing works for me. If you
want, you can also replace the version used with PyKata by
http://code.google.com/p/crunchy/source/browse/trunk/crunchy/server_root/edit_area/edit_area_crunchy.js
which I modified for Crunchy so that it allows the following font
sizes: [8,9,10,11,12,14,17,20,24,28,32,36]

I tried resizing with three different browsers (Safari, Firefox, and
IE8). The widget is completely unresponsive. It does change font
sizes when I select that option, however. This is puzzling. I'm not
working through a proxy, or anything like that, and the network delays
seem normal with other operations in these browsers.

I have no problems here with Firefox on Windows XP .... except for a
quirk that is particular to EditArea.

To resize the editor, one needs to left-click (and let go) on the
bottom-right corner. Note: do not click-drag as this does not work.
After letting go of the mouse, the editor appearance changes to just
an outline. That outline follows the mouse. Clicking the mouse again
sets the screen size to the new value.

hth,
André

Silly me. :>) Maybe we need to add a line to the Help popup:
Resize: Click, don't drag.

If you would like to experiment with other options, use the "test"
branch of our repository. I've added your gmail address to our SVN
repositiory.

Thanks for that. I'm a tad busy these days but, if I find the time, I
might very well do that.
