There was another thread about this, which I've tried. But there is one problem: the textarea doesn't shrink if you delete the content. I can't find any way to shrink it to the correct size - the clientHeight value comes back as the full size of the textarea, not its contents. The code from that page is below. I'd appreciate any help or...
I'm using a JTextArea to display a long text JTextArea _definition = new JTextArea(5, 50); with word-wrap _definition.setLineWrap(true); _definition.setWrapStyleWord(true); embedded in a JScrollPane add(new JScrollPane(_definition), gbc); All that is part of a JPanel with the GridBagLayout.

Really my question has more to do with the server-side scrubbing of html that's accepted via the WYSIWYG form component. Right now I'm leaning toward using htmlpurifier.org's library. I'm using php strip_tags() function elsewhere. Anyone have an advice/preferences/recommendations? ...
All I need is to be able to detect when text is dropped into a Textarea. I then take that text and do stuff with it and clear the textarea. There may be many of these textareas and very high UI expectations, so polling is a last resort. For IE, "onfocus" does the trick, since this event is fired after the user drops stuff into the tex...
I'd like to increase the height of a textarea when the text wraps to a new line, so it dynamically expands to whatever it needs to be. I don't want to use the onscroll event because I want the expansion to always be one step ahead of the scrolling, so the textarea never scrolls until it reaches a max height of x. Anyway I could do this?...

Does anyone know of a good plugin for prototype which allows textareas to automatically expand / contract based on how much text there is in them (e.g. a line is added the area gets bigger, a line is removed it gets smaller)? I need one thats free to use (e.g. some form of GPL type license). ...
When attempting to output an empty textarea element, the .NET XSLT processor collapses the element to its short form. Instead of this: <textarea id="blah" name="blah"></textarea> I get this: <textarea id="blah" name="blah"/> Which causes many web browsers (including IE and Firefox) to render the rest of the page as if it were the c...
Hi, I'm looking for a javascript that can limit the number of lines (by line I mean some text ended by user pressing enter on the keyboard) the user is able to enter in textarea.

The initial height of a text area is much larger than the content, I cannot find a way of making it always the same height as the text content: <mx:TextArea id="textarea" borderStyle="solid" width="100%" wordWrap="true" selectable="false" backgroundAlpha="0" focusAlpha="0" text="this is a little test" /> Gives a bordered box that is m...
