Freeflowing Textarea

[averageuser]

Hey Guys,

 

I was wondering if there was a way to have a freeflowing textarea, so it would essentially resemble standard word-wrapping and stretching of a table cell, with no specified height or width.  Reason being, I want the textarea to be virtually hidden from the user, so it can be used simply as an element allowing POSTing of its data.

 

 

Thanks.

if you do not want people to see this field and you don't want them to be able to edit it; why don't you just create a hidden input field?

 

like so:

 

<input type="hidden" name="fieldNameHere">

 

or if you want to do it a different way; you could do this:

 

<textarea style="display:none" readonly disabled></textarea>

 

or.........

 

<textarea style="width:1px;height:1px;overflow:hidden" readonly disabled></textarea>

and if you want it to move with the cell size... simply make the width and height percentages instead of px's
