The height is a fixed size. Remove it, or set it larger.

Remove the height limit and all browsers will expand it as needed. IE
expands it now because it is broken.

The height is a *fixed size*. Remove it, or set it larger.

if you *must* have a fixed height then add overflow:auto; to your style
element.

Hmmm... not sure what a browser will do with a vertical scrollbar on
such a short element. It will be tricky to operate, I think. :)
