I recently implemented the jQuery TextExt plugin (available at ) to create a language tagging input field, similar to how it's done on Facebook.
On the whole, the plugin functions wonderfully.
However, I've encountered an issue that has me stumped. I am utilizing TextExt on an input field like so:
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#id_languages').textext({
plugins : 'tags prompt suggestions arrow autocomplete',
tagsItems : ['English'],
suggestions : languages, //variable set earlier
prompt : 'Add more here...',
});
</script>
It works as expected. As I add more tags, the input field expands, as one would anticipate.
Yet, it reaches a point where it grows too tall for my layout to accommodate.
Is there a way to set a maximum height for the input element using TextExt, and include a vertical scrollbar, while ensuring that the suggestions dropdown does not appear within the scrolling div?
I hope this explanation is clear. I'm a bit confused myself right now.
