I have a TinyMCE that is set over a TextArea, and I want this editor area to ocuppy all the space of its parent div, all times.

I have a JS function that get the current space and set the textarea.style.height to it, but when I enables TinyMCE it seems to stop working.

Also, the textarea has width: 100%; it doesn't resize by HTML rendering when it's using TinyMCE too.

Any ideas?

Nowadays, you should use the autoresize plugin that comes with tinyMCE. You will have to call tinyMCE like this (jQuery version):

$('.tinymce').tinymce({

  theme : 'advanced',

  plugins : 'autoresize',

  width: '100%',

  height: 400,

  autoresize_min_height: 400,

  autoresize_max_height: 800,

});

I made the experience, that it may be helpful to manually call the resizing in the init_instance_callback to provide the correct height on init. Add this parameter to the passed options, if you need this:

init_instance_callback: function (inst) { inst.execCommand('mceAutoResize'); }
