Turn off textarea resizing

Question

I\'m trying to turn off textarea resizing in my site; right now I\'m using this method:

.textarea {
    clear:left;
    min-width: 267px;
    max-width: 267px;
          


        

Answer 1

This is works for me

<textarea
  type='text'
  style="resize: none"
>
Some text
</textarea>

Answer 2

It can done easy by just using html draggable attribute

<textarea name="mytextarea" draggable="false"></textarea>

Default value is true.

Answer 3

Try this CSS to disable resizing

The CSS to disable resizing for all textareas looks like this:

textarea {
    resize: none;
}

You could instead just assign it to a single textarea by name (where the textarea HTML is ):

textarea[name=foo] {
    resize: none;
}

Or by id (where the textarea HTML is ):

#foo {
    resize: none;
}

Answer 4

this will do your job

  textarea{
        resize:none;
    }

Answer 5

CSS3 can solve this problem. Unfortunately it's only supported on 60% of used browsers nowadays.

For IE and iOS you can't turn off resizing but you can limit the textarea dimension by setting its width and height.

/* One can also turn on/off specific axis. Defaults to both on. */
textarea { resize:vertical; } /* none|horizontal|vertical|both */

Answer 6

Just one extra option, if you want to revert the default behaviour for all textareas in the application, you could add the following to your CSS:

textarea:not([resize="true"]) {
  resize: none !important;
}

And do the following to enable where you want resizing:

<textarea resize="true"></textarea>

Have in mind this solution might not work in all browsers you may want to support. You can check the list of support for resize here: http://caniuse.com/#feat=css-resize
