100% width textarea doesn't work

[sindresorhus]

Testcase

If I set the textarea to 100% width, textext overrides it to 12px width.

This isn't just a problem with text area - I'm having the same problem with a text input.

​

It seems to happen whenever a % width is set rather than a pixel value.

why does this plugin even mess with the html code causing displeasure and headache zzzzzz...

+1, this is an issue when using TextExt with ActiveAdmin in Rails. ActiveAdmin has presets for inputs and all of them are percentage values. Had to manually fix it for now.

Am having the same problem, am using "width: 100%" for my textarea and textext forces it to be 12px...

News about this? @thejae

a fix is to modify the textext.core.js version 1.3.1
line 974
width = self.originalWidth + 'px',
to
width = '100%'

for the minified version look for:

e=a.originalWidth+"px"
to
e="100%"

in case you need to have a fixed width just wrap the widget into a div and give it a fixed width

@natise with your fix(width = '100%'), I found I need to override style for textarea.

.text-core .text-wrap textarea {
  left: 0!important;
}
