    Default expanding textarea 30 Apr 2010 @ 10.57

    Hi all,

    I assume this can be done not too difficultly using javascript.

    What I am looking to do is have a textarea that is, say, 3 lines high. As the users types into the textbox, it grows to fit the number of lines being typed. Basically the same way the facebook 'comment' and 'status' boxes work.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks,

    Stu
