I\'ve a UITableView which contains a cell, which in turn contains a TTTextEditor (a Three20 control) which for all intents and purposes is a UITextView. I\'m using the TTTex

The first thing you need to do is to implement the table view delegate's -tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath: method. In this method you specify the height taken by each row in a table. If some rows in your table have a height which is different from others, then you need to implement this.

When this method is called for your text editor's row, just find the view's height and return it.

The second thing you need to do is to tell the table view to refresh itself whenever the editor's height change. I don't know how TTTextEditor works, but you can check that for a UITextView by implementing its delegate's -textViewDidChange: method, for example. Once you know that the editor's height has changed just call the table view's -reloadData method -- that should adjust the table's height appropriately.
