Edit Box grows smaller while typing...

[Norbert]

Hi

If i type text into a multi line Editbox it gets smaller while typing (only the height)
It happens on Firefox 9 & 10 and IE 9.

using Jira 4.4.4
The was also in 4.4.3 (occurred after upgrading from 4.3.x to 4.4.3)

it's not a big problem, only annoying :(
because it only gets small as the text in the editbox
(e.g. you have two line of text, the edit box shrinks two the hight of the two line)

Happens to all multi line Edit boxes in JIRA (AFAIK)

This is a bug in JIRA 4.x
Currently no solution availabe,
Workaround change the zoom faktor of the webbrowser.

It should be already fixed in Version 5 of Jira..
