rah_expanding // Dynamically growing textareas
Rah_expanding is an admin-side plugin that makes textarea elements grow automatically with the user’s input. While the user types, the field’s height will increase to fit the content.

Re: rah_expanding // Dynamically growing textareas
Really nice! To have this working with aro_myadmin I have to change aro_myadmin <div id=“body”> to <div=“body1”> both in plugin code and in corresponding selectors in myadmin.css. There is an issue because id=“body” is used also for the first textarea and you can use only one in a page. Fortunately with this modification everything work. I’ll post this also on aro_myadmin thread.
Thanks!

Yep, that is “little” mistake in the default aro_myadmin layout, ‘cause same ID can be used only once :) And when this plugin uses it as selector (textarea#body), then it kinda makes it unfunctional.

Re: rah_expanding // Dynamically growing textareas
This would make a fine extension for the public-facing side when attached to .txpCommentInputMessage, I think.

Re: rah_expanding // Dynamically growing textareas
For myself i’ve done a little more interesting thing – besides adjusting height of textareas i made then wider, using such formula: new_width=width_of_browser - width_of_left_column - width_of_right_column because default width of textareas (forms, plugins_code, pages is too little for me.
