rows of Textarea

[keeru]

Instead of having a constant value for rows like rows="6" in the textarea tag, is there a way to have a dynamic value for rows based on the number of rows of the content. The content varies.

Instead of having a constant value for rows like rows="6" in the textarea tag, is there a way to have a dynamic value for rows based on the number of rows of the content. The content varies.

IE verion 6

This is the code
<TEXTAREA cols="160" rows="10" style="BORDER-BOTTOM-STYLE: none; BORDER-LEFT-STYLE: none; BORDER-RIGHT-STYLE: none; BORDER-TOP-STYLE: none;" readonly >{$this-Value text}</TEXTAREA>

With the above code the text which is there in $this-Value is displayed with 10 rows and 120 columns with no borders around but with scrollbars when the content has 18 rows.
I should be able to display the entire content whatever the number of rows the content spans through and with no scrollbars. The content is dynamic one-- it is not always the same.Hence the number of rows vary. How can I get the number of rows and how to display the entire content.

HTML/CSS by itself will not be able to do this. It will require the use of a programming language or possibly AJAX or JavaScript.
