cell height

Hi,
i use dhtmlxWindows and i need to insert a textarea in window. Instead of "attachURL", i'd like to use a dhtmlxgrid with one row and one cell.(so i can use easy dhtmlxdataproccessor to save the value).
It works great. The only problem is the height of cell.
I use the following codes:

var grid = w1.attachGrid();
grid.setImagePath("/images/imgs/");
grid.setHeader("Model");
grid.setNoHeader(true);
grid.setInitWidths("*");
grid.setColTypes("ed");
grid.init();
grid.loadXML("/xml_feed.jsp?action=get_addNotes&rowId="+rowId+"&cellInd="+cellInd);
grid.enableMultiline(true);

1. Can i adjust the cell height manual, at best as tall as dhtmlxwindow?
2. How can i set word wrap?
3. Can i solve the problem with scrollbar in FireFox by longtext?(Firefox creates a scrollbar instead of wordwrap).

Thanks in advance!

1) If you known expected height, you can use 
         grid.setRowTextStyle(id,"height:100px;");
2) place grid.enableMultiline(true) before grid.init()
3) In multiline mode browser will break long text by whitespaces automatically. Beware that FF will not break long text without whitespaces ( this is native behavior of browser and can't be changed )
