How can I change the editor width?

I would assume it is in the css files for the editors. Found in /jscripts/editor_themes/. If not then it is probably in the templates somewhere.

I can't find the width part in the CSS. (of the editor) :s

Just found it in the newreply templates there is:

<textarea id="message" name="message" rows="20" cols="70" tabindex="2" >{$message}</textarea>

Just change the amount of columns and you can change the size This would also be found in edit post, quick reply etc.

You need to edit New Reply Templates>newreply and New Thread Templates>newthread templates.

Find

<textarea id="message" name="message" rows="20" cols="70" tabindex="2" >{$message}</textarea>

Replace

<textarea id="message" name="message" rows="20" cols="120" tabindex="2" >{$message}</textarea>

Thank you both of you.

This method works only for themes with fixed width. How to stretch the editor to 100% width for stretched layout themes?
