Can someone point me to the .css file and CSS selector to modify to make a bigger text entry control for typing up blog posts? I want to go wider longer by default.
Similarly, where to go to change the length of the Categories list that is along side that control?

Just do view source in your browser on that page. All of that information is there.
Mike T, Have you actually tried to do that?
When I do View Source and poke around I find a textarea control with class full-width which I suspect is the right control. But separately below it I find a hidden input control with id editor-content-height and value 194. So maybe I'm really aiming at that 194 value? If so, can I tweak it in CSS? The answer is not obvious to me.
Also, that textarea's class full-width: I find it it main.css. But its entry is not helpful for what I'm trying to do:
.full-width{width:100%;}
So then I look at the div that the textarea is in and that makes me think I can't control the initial size by editing a CSS file. Can that be right? Here's what I see in that div:
div class="editor" id="editor-content-enclosure" mt:min-height="66" mt:update-field-height="editor-content-height" style="height: 194px"
That min-height or maybe the height in the style looks to be my problem. They didn't put that in CSS. Isn't that the whole point of CSS? I'm disappointed.
So does anyone know the right file to edit to change this? I've done this on previous versions of MT but not for over 3 years.
