Nowadays, you should use the autoresize plugin that comes with tinyMCE. You will have to call tinyMCE like this (jQuery version):

$('.tinymce').tinymce({
  theme : 'advanced',
  plugins : 'autoresize',
  width: '100%',
  height: 400,
  autoresize_min_height: 400,
  autoresize_max_height: 800,
});

I made the experience, that it may be helpful to manually call the resizing in the init_instance_callback to provide the correct height on init. Add this parameter to the passed options, if you need this:

init_instance_callback: function (inst) { inst.execCommand('mceAutoResize'); }
