Creating a textarea with auto-resize

2018-12-31 03:29发布

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:

function FitToContent(id, maxHeight)
{
   var text = id && id.style ? id : document.getElementById(id);
   if ( !text )
      return;

   var adjustedHeight = text.clientHeight;
   if ( !maxHeight || maxHeight > adjustedHeight )
   {
      adjustedHeight = Math.max(text.scrollHeight, adjustedHeight);
      if ( maxHeight )
         adjustedHeight = Math.min(maxHeight, adjustedHeight);
      if ( adjustedHeight > text.clientHeight )
         text.style.height = adjustedHeight + "px";
   }
}

window.onload = function() {
    document.getElementById("ta").onkeyup = function() {
      FitToContent( this, 500 )
    };
}

None of the answers seem to work. But this one works for me: https://coderwall.com/p/imkqoq/resize-textarea-to-fit-content

$('#content').on( 'change keyup keydown paste cut', 'textarea', function (){
    $(this).height(0).height(this.scrollHeight);
}).find( 'textarea' ).change();

This works for me (Firefox 3.6/4.0 and Chrome 10/11):

var observe;
if (window.attachEvent) {
    observe = function (element, event, handler) {
        element.attachEvent('on'+event, handler);
    };
}
else {
    observe = function (element, event, handler) {
        element.addEventListener(event, handler, false);
    };
}
function init () {
    var text = document.getElementById('text');
    function resize () {
        text.style.height = 'auto';
        text.style.height = text.scrollHeight+'px';
    }
    /* 0-timeout to get the already changed text */
    function delayedResize () {
        window.setTimeout(resize, 0);
    }
    observe(text, 'change',  resize);
    observe(text, 'cut',     delayedResize);
    observe(text, 'paste',   delayedResize);
    observe(text, 'drop',    delayedResize);
    observe(text, 'keydown', delayedResize);

    text.focus();
    text.select();
    resize();
}
textarea {
    border: 0 none white;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 0;
    outline: none;
    background-color: #D0D0D0;
}
<body onload="init();">
<textarea rows="1" style="height:1em;" id="text"></textarea>
</body>

If you want try it on jsfiddle It starts with a single line and grows only the exact amount necessary. It is ok for a single textarea, but I wanted to write something where I would have many many many such textareas (about as much as one would normally have lines in a large text document). In that case it is really slow. (In Firefox it's insanely slow.) So I really would like an approach that uses pure CSS. This would be possible with contenteditable, but I want it to be plaintext-only.

For those who want the textarea to be auto resized on both width and height:

HTML:

<textarea class='textbox'></textarea>
<div>
  <span class='tmp_textbox'></span>
</div>

CSS:

.textbox,
.tmp_textbox {
  font-family: 'Arial';
  font-size: 12px;
  resize: none;
  overflow:hidden;
}

.tmp_textbox {
  display: none;
}

jQuery:

$(function(){
  //alert($('.textbox').css('padding'))
  $('.textbox').on('keyup change', checkSize)
  $('.textbox').trigger('keyup')

  function checkSize(){
    var str = $(this).val().replace(/\r?\n/g, '<br/>');
    $('.tmp_textbox').html( str )
    console.log($(this).val())

    var strArr = str.split('<br/>')
    var row = strArr.length
    $('.textbox').attr('rows', row)
    $('.textbox').width( $('.tmp_textbox').width() + parseInt($('.textbox').css('padding')) * 2 + 10 )
  }
})

autosize

https://github.com/jackmoore/autosize

Just works, standalone, is popular (3.0k+ GitHub stars as of October 2018), available on cdnjs) and lightweight (~3.5k). Demo:

<textarea id="autosize" style="width:200px;">a
J   b
c</textarea>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/autosize.js/4.0.2/autosize.min.js"></script>
<script>autosize(document.querySelectorAll('#autosize'));</script>

BTW, if you are using the ACE editor, use maxLines: Infinity: Automatically adjust height to contents in Ace Cloud 9 editor

Just use <pre> </pre> with some styles like:

    pre {
        font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        white-space: pre-wrap;
        word-wrap: break-word;
        font-size: 12px;
        line-height: 16px;
    }

Here is what I did while using MVC HTML Helper for TextArea. I had quite a few of textarea elements so had to distinguish them using Model Id.

 @Html.TextAreaFor(m => m.Text, 2, 1, new { id = "text" + Model.Id, onkeyup = "resizeTextBox(" + Model.Id + ");" })

and in script added this:

   function resizeTextBox(ID) {            
        var text = document.getElementById('text' + ID);
        text.style.height = 'auto';
        text.style.height = text.scrollHeight + 'px';            
    }

I have tested it on IE10 and Firefox23
