jQuery Autosize plugin on dynamically added textarea elements

Question

Hi :) I'm using jQuery Autosize plugin to resize some of my textarea elements dynamically. Everything is good but the problem is that when I add some textarea elements to the DOM dynamically, the autosize thing no longer works.

I initialize the plugin like so:

$(document).ready(function () {
        $('textarea').autosize();
    });

I tried to enable the plugin for my dynamically added textareas like:

myDynamicallyAddedTextarea.autosize();

Unfortunately, nothing happened. Can anybody help me with this?

Answer 1

sorry I can't comment yet, where are you adding this textarea at? can you post some of the code around the dynamic generation so that I can see when this stuff is getting called?

according to the docs , all you have to do is something like this for dynamically added elements...

function addTextArea() {
  $(body).append($('<textarea class="test" />'));
  $('.test').autosize();
});

//somewhere in code, but must be after the autosize plugin js has loaded
addTextArea();
