Resize EpicEditor based on the content put within it

I'm using epiceditor within my site, and I am populating it with markdown embedded on the page by the server. Currently when epiceditor displays, it has a very small default height, with scroll bars to handle viewing the entire content. I can manually set the height of the div, and for now that's the best I've been able to do (I've set it to something reasonably large: 800px). However I would like its height to always be enough to fit the entire content without scroll-bars. Essentially something like overflow:visible. Here's the relevant portions so far\[code\]<html> <head> <script src="http://stackoverflow.com/assets/javascripts/epiceditor/js/epiceditor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script id="postMarkdown" type="text/markdown" data-postId="1"> #Markdowns in here ... </script> <style> #epiceditor{ height: 800px; } </style> <script src="http://stackoverflow.com/assets/javascripts/thrown/posts/edit.js" type="text/javascript"></script> </head> <body> <div id="epiceditor"> </div> </body></html>\[/code\]And heres the edit.js source (its compiled from coffescript)\[code\]$ -> postMarkdown = $("#postMarkdown").first() options = basePath : '../../assets/javascripts/epiceditor' editor = new EpicEditor(options).load() postId = postMarkdown.data('postId') markdown = postMarkdown.html() editor.importFile('posts/'+postId,markdown); editor.reflow();\[/code\]I was hoping reflow might expand the height after the content was inserted, however no such luck. However If I resize the div and call reflow, It does resize properly.I've inspected the markup it creates in hopes I could determine the width and resize its container and tell it to reflow. However it seems it contains multiple iframes, and at a glance I didn't expect that to be a quick change, or if it would even be possible. However I'd welcome any solution.I also understand that if I size its container to the right height, epiceditor will fill the proper space. However I want its height to be the amount needed to render, such that the editor takes up the right space in the rest of the sites design. Therefore if there something I can set in EpicEditor to have it not overflow in the manner it is, or a way to determine the height after it loads, I'm set.Thanks for any help.
