Textarea resizing feature is great. Can you add this feature to plug-ins as well? We produce a popular WYSIWYG editor plug-in called XStandard. The plug-in is loaded via the following markup: <object type="application/x-xstandard" width="600" height="300"> </object>

Can you try putting object { resize: both; } in your style sheet and seeing if that does the trick.

I've updated the test page here: http://misc.xstandard.com/apple/test.asp ... to include the following CSS: object { resize: both; } This had no affect.

'resize' requires 'overflow' other than 'visible', but overflow clipping only works with blocks and table rows/sections. This is one way to accomplish plugin resizing with CSS: <head> <style> object { width: 100%; height: 100%; } div#container { position: relative; width: 600px; height: 300px; resize: both; overflow: auto; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <object type="application/x-xstandard"> </object> </div> </body>

A better way to put it is that resizing works with containers, and <object> is not a container.

mitz, thank you for looking into this. But I am still a bit unclear about this. If I understand what you are saying is that only block elements can be resized? But <textarea> is an inline element and it can be resized.

But I am still a bit unclear about this. > If I understand what you are saying is that only block elements can be resized? > But <textarea> is an inline element and it can be resized. > Overflow other than visible applies to non-replaced block-level elements, table cells, and inline-block elements [http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visufx.html#propdef-overflow]. Since <object> is replaced block-level element so the resize property doesn't apply to it [http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-ui/#resize]. The bug report is INVALID.
