This is nothing to do with your ARS version - it is a standard feature of
the Firefox browser when displaying text area fields

Subject: Re: Hiding 'resize handle' character fields on midtier

I just now tried the Firefox 13.0 beta as well as 12.0 and still see the
handles, so it's probably something they changed with ARS 7.6.x.

Benny's suggestion about customizing CSS is an idea, but since it sounds
like an upgrade might "fix" this, I'll probably leave it alone.
 
Thanks, everybody!

David
