When CodeMirror is loaded, it reinitialize the editing area height to something like 300px : this is too tiny if you have more than 23 lines of code to edit.

I see four solutions :

• On the CodeMirror initialization, set an arbitrary height (like 800px) : easy pick,
• Create an input so the user can itself set the height of this area : easy pick,
• Mimic the Pastebin behavior : dynamically set the height of the editing area regarding the number of lines, even if new lines are detected in the future : hard pick, but maybe CodeMirror provide a plugin / an API that do the trick,
• On initialization, set a height of document.documentElement.clientHeight - 250 : easy pick. So no worry about coding a complex thing.
