jQuery resizable only works on first element


I have a control on my page will contain multiple multi-line text boxes that need to be resizable.
I am attempting to use the jQuery resizable function to accomplish this task. I only need my text boxes to be expandable vertically. Unfortunately I can only get the resizable function to work for the first div.

Here's a sample of my code:

<%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeBehind="Page_jQuery_Resizable.aspx.vb"
    Inherits="jQueryTest.Page_jQuery_Resizable" %>

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>

            padding-bottom: 30px;
            border: 2px solid blue;
        }
        .ImResizable
        {
            height: 60px;
            width: 470px;
        }
        .ImResizable textarea
        {
            height: 95%;
            width: 100%;

Solution

  • You could use $.each and iterate over the elements. Like this:

    $("div.ImResizable").each(function() {
        var $this = $(this);
        $this.resizable({
            minHeight: 25,
            maxHeight: 85,
            minWidth: 470,
            maxWidth: 470,
            handles: { 's': $this.find("div.ui-resizable-handle") }
        });
    });
