Code To Stop A Textarea From Having Scrollbars?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 22.2009

Hi everybody, ?

Basically just what the title says… I can’t seem to find any code which turns off the scroll bars on a textarea. When writing one big, big word I just want it text to bounce off the right-hand side wall and onto the line below, not out of the box.

Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks and regards,

Amph. ?

EDIT: Found the code to hide scrollbars, but it doesn’t resolve the problem of the text disappearing outside the textarea.

@donatelloApr 22.2009 — I have found that I have had to use a stylesheet for a textarea to get it to do what I want.

The standard way does not always work the way I want.

[code=html]<textarea name="select1" rows="13" columns="20" class="sizedthewayIwantintheCSS" >[/code]

I've also had some luck setting the textarea size to a percentage (usually just under 100&#37? inside of a DIV or Table.


But the next time I make a textarea, I'm going for broke with this baby:
