Text Box Resize
28 September 2010, 19:54
I've just replaced the patch I mentioned in the last post: it introduced a layout bug in blocks where the configuration form can change its height (e.g. the files to download block, which gets longer as more files are uploaded).

I already installed the first patch. Will the new patch fix the introduced bug or do I need a separate patch for that?

Steve,
This patch from master will apply cleanly on your already-patched 1.3 and will remove the introduced bug:

Okay, third time lucky I hope. I've had to change the patch again to add a unit (px) to the width property, which some browsers need. The new patch is here:

(If you've already applied the previous one, use this instead: http://gitorious.org/mahara/mahara/commit/ff8b17d30ff7edd62eed77e58fa8141543ce95ce.patch)

Hallooo everyone,
thought it might be useful to share a 'hack' of ours that we are using on our TDM installations to kind of 'solve' the textbox size problem until it's fully resolved.
It applies to ALL text boxes in mahara, so it isn't really a fix for the resizing just in mahara views.
It adds a drag resizer to the bottom righthand corner of your texteditor so you can drag it to whatever size.
- Insert the following two lines in /lib/web.php - at line 127 before... theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
theme_advanced_statusbar_location: "bottom",

It was great when I tested it and then I had a couple funky things happen later on. I had to take back what I said about it being such a great hack. Very cool though.

Further testing done. Can confirm it doesn't work. Causes images to disappear and general mayhem in my server log.
v1.3.3

perhaps you could share some of this testing information and maybe we can work together to work it out.
We are running Mahara 1.3.3 and it works really nicely 
could you show us a screenshot of the abnormalities?
Cheers,
