Core Fields Ajax Growing Textarea

Core Fields Ajax Growing Textarea was created by samkresslein
Hello, I recently purchased the add-ons pack and I am loving all of them. I would like to have a growing textarea field on my site when the profile is edited from the front-end using Core Fields Ajax. I have looked at code to make a standard growing textarea, but when I implement the code within Core Fields Ajax it breaks everything or simply does not work.

By growing text field I mean when the user types, the textarea grows taller with every new line.

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you.

We've nothing like that built in for CB fields. You'd need to add the jQuery to do that using CB Auto Actions and a Code action with Method set to jQuery. We do provide a jQuery plugin with CB that provides this. See the below example auto action usage.

Global
Triggers: onBeforeUserProfileEditDisplay, onBeforeRegisterFormDisplay
Type: Code
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Action
Method: jQuery
Code:
Code:
$( '.cbft_textarea textarea' ).autosize();
Plugins: autosize

This likely will not work with the ajax usage.
