Controling the size of a Portlet in Liferay

Question

I have a simple Vaadin portlet which displays an Embedded page e.g www.stackoverflow..com. In Liferay I set the page layout where the portlet is to 1 column Layout so that the portlet fills out the full page. Now if I resize my browser (Firefox 11) the portlet is not being effected at all. Is there a way to make my Portlet resize itself if I resize my Browser ? I checked the ?debug console there are no layout errors and if I resize my broswer vaadin seems to call some resize funktions to set the new height, Width

Running layout functions due to window resize
New window width: 1265
New window height: 906

but nothing happens.

Im working with vaadin 6.6.6 and liferay 6.1

Try to have a look at Iframe portlet which is in Liferay. This portlet uses javascript to resize itself and does basically what you want to achieve.
