[RESOLVED] Multiline TextBox fill entire container

I have a table where I have a cell that spans all of the rows and it contains a Multiline TextBox, what I would like is that textbox to fill the entire cell regardless of how big it is.

I tried this:

Code:

---

<td rowspan="14"><asp:TextBox ID="AppInfoTextBox" TextMode="MultiLine" style="width:100&#37;;height:100%;" runat="server" /></td>

---

Here's how it's rendering:

I don't know at coding time what the size will be, the page is opened in a popup window and the user can re-size the window so I need it to be whatever the cell size is.

Hi.Your problem is that td will not give percentage out.If you use pixels you will see that it expands.
What i think you can do is, since your are using rowspan, try to set the exact same rowspan of the td to the textbox rows like this:

Code:

---

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width:100%;height:100%;background:#ccc;">
  <tr>
    <td>sdfsfdfdsfsd<br />
        sfd<br />
        sdfd<br />
        <br />
     
        <br />
        sd<br />
        </td>
    <td rowspan="14"><asp:TextBox ID="AppInfoTextBox" TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="14" style="width:100%" runat="server" /></td>
  </tr>
</table>

---

These are assumptions i haven't actually tested an expanding textbox inside a td.Let me know how this turns out.

Thanks man, it's close enough I guess.

It just seems odd that you can set a width of 100%, but don't bother with the css height property because the multiline textbox ignores it. I don't see why you can't have a TB resize itself with it's container.

Well. me either.May exist a better solution but i don't have one :o
