Do a minimal page as an example, you may find one of several things:

 * Your above conclusion is right.

 * You have set textarea and div fonts at 70% so your textarea is 70% of
the div which is already 70% of the body.

 * Something else is breaking it. Firebug is your friend.

OR

Post a link tothe example you have.
