freelance84 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 I've noticed on some web pages (eg Facebook), the size of text areas can start at 2 lines high but then as the user inputs more text the height can grow to accommodate the text. How is this done? <textarea style="max-height:50px;" name="additional_comment" cols="20" rows="1"></textarea> I assumed it would be a simple max-height job but, no.

haku Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 It's not possible without JS. The best you can do without JS is have scrollbars manually added as the text inside the textarea expands beyond the height of the textarea.
