jQuery textarea auto-resizer.

Introduction

collective.autoresizetextarea is a textarea auto-resizer for Plone. It is based on James Padolsey’s jQuery autoResize plugin. Check his website for a demo.

Buildout Installation

Add the following code to your buildout.cfg:

    ...
    collective.autoresizetextarea
    ...

[instance]

zcml =
    ...
    collective.autoresizetextarea

Usage

To add the auto-resize feature to a textarea you can either add an “autoresize” CSS class to the textarea:

<textarea class="autoresize" />

or change the jQuery selector in the second line of the javascripts/autoresize.js file:

...
jq('textarea.mycssclass').autoResize({
   ...
...

Consult the jQuery documentation for more about jQuery selectors.
