I can confirm this is a feature request (as per the title). The github.com link (above) demonstrates this is a common problem that developers currently fix with buggy JavaScript. This "Issue" has been raised on other browsers bug reporters, prompting them to implement this feature, and for the W3C to eventually standardise it. The discussion has currently halted on the `www-style@w3.org` mailing list: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2016Mar/0198.html For a working demo (also attached), please see: https://craigfrancis.github.io/iframe-height/additional/textarea/

We're not going to implement this unless it is standardized, the web needs fewer browser specific quirks, not more of them. Please follow up with the w3c if this is something you care about. |
