All prompts from javascript MM_popupMsg() have 2 lines at most, even with very large texts, when tab-modal prompts is enabled. Can I improve the number of lines?

With tab-modal prompts enabled, a prompt that has javascript MM_popupMsg() as source code has 2 lines at most. When the message text is very extensive, the prompt opens wider than the browser. Thus, the 'OK' button and part of the text remain inaccessible. When I disable tab-modal prompts, the text is automatically organized into a number of lines, in such a way that all the text remains accessible.
