Thank you very much for making and sharing this. I was about to stop blogging because it was so painful to manipulate the text and photos in such a small box. Thank you, thank you for your generosity!

I like horizontal and vertical resize handles. Then I can try out different edit window sizes. Normally, I like to fill the whole screen with the edit window. So I don't mind scrolling the browser window to move the edit window, and make it fill most of the screen. I like moving stuff around, and using large images sometimes. Some themes at Blogger and Wordpress.com blog hosts allow larger

rambling man, Ahmad, etc.: I'm avoiding the "updated editor" for now, due to many other unresolved issues with that editor itself. My scripts are only designed to work with the "old editor".

rambling man: I'm confused / surprised at what you're looking for. My script resizes the edit box along with the browser window, pretty much ensuring that only

I am new to Greasemonkey, but since it seems to be a trusted Firefox addon, I installed it. I then clicked your install button at http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/56651 and it worked in increasing the width of the old edit window at Blogger. I did not know of the new Blogger editor until I read the comments here. It is activated from the settings page. It allows one to increase the vertical

Within Blogger's settings (1st page I believe), there's a new "Updated editor" I've since reverted back to the older one (didn't like the new one), and your scripts now work.

Thanks.

Ahmad - These scripts are still working for me. I just successfully tested the bookmarklet in both Firefox and IE 8, and the Greasemonkey script in Firefox. I'm not aware of a "new blogger edit space". Are you part of a special Blogger beta or something that may be affecting them?

This doesn't work (bookmarklet or GM script) with the new blogger edit space. Also, I write quite a few bookmarklets myself (more than a few actually) and have found an excellent tool to convert my JS into one. Contact me and I'll be more than happy to share its location.

Mark, thanks so much! This Greasemonkey script makes my life much easier!

Couple of suggestions:

1. It would be nice if adjusting the width were a preference; I prefer the stock (narrow) width myself.

2. Can the buffer amounts be automatically determined? 350px vertical was enough for me. Or, perhaps a preference for a quick-n-dirty solution.

I was able

Stratagerm and all -

As mentioned in my update, this is now also available as a Greasemonkey extension for anyone using Mozilla Firefox or another Greasemonkey-compatible browser.

Stratagerm - as for your other suggestions, I think your comment accomplishes itself. :-)

A couple of minor suggestions to assist non-technical people:

1. Make the bookmarklet link more prominent (by moving it to the top of the post).

2. Provide clear instructions on its use (i.e. "Click the bookmark when you are editing your blog to increase the size of the edit box").

It was no issue for me to read through, find and bookmark the link, and

Great tool! I've blogged about it.

Thanks! This is really excellent.

FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had to search a wide range of terms to find your blog & solution, but it works great in Safari on a MacBook Pro. You totally made my day!

Having spent years in graphic design, including both Photoshop/Illustrator/InDesign and online work, I have grown accustomed to large work areas for everything I do. Blogger was driving me nuts.

thanks for this. It works in Chromes' URL bar - useful as Chrome doesn't have extensions yet :)
