Textarea AutoSize is a basic solution that makes sure textareas won't take up too much space on your page unless they really have to.
Compared to similar solutions, this plugin is quite lightweight in size, doesn't have unexplained flickers when resizing the field, and also uses a new, unique UX behavior.
Instead of growing to huge vertical heights, the Textarea AutoSize plugin also implements a max value, limiting the size at which a textarea can grow.
This prevents situations when users enter small novellas in their textarea and the form field grows to cover the entire page and sometimes even more.
Demos and installation instructions are included with the plugins download package.
