I am using YUI reset and jquery AutoGrow together on the same site. It works fine on firefox, but IE 7 behaves badly. The textarea grows way to big with even a small amount of text in it.
Below is an example that demonstrates the problem. If I comment out the reset stylesheet, the autogrow behaves properly.
I am hoping there is some simple css that I can override that will fix this. I am way to far into this project to switch away from YUI reset.
