This is the technique I used - the same as Michel's idea without the table & avoiding the need to set the initial size of the textarea.
<head>
function SetTASize()
{
document.all.ta1.style.width=document.body.clientWidth
document.all.ta1.style.position="absolute"
document.all.ta1.style.lext="0px"
}
</head>
<body onLoad="SetTASize()" onResize="SetTASize()">
<textarea>
...
</textarea>
</body>
