Description

I can't believe you forgot to use <textarea cols='80' ... on your edit boxes, like e.g., MediaWiki does. (Indeed, if you can't beat them (MediaWiki), join them.)

Else users will go nuts with the skinny default edit box, unless they just happen to have sytlesheets enabled.

Steps to reproduce

Use a browser without stylesheets or one with them turned off, e.g., ALT-V Y N in firefox on Linux at least.

Example

$ w3m ThisVeryPage?action=edit... or http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/RuleUpdates?action=edit

Component selection

The box that contains the words one is to edit.

Details

Workaround

Use only firefox with stylesheets turned on. Lynx also has a different effect...
