I am trying detect when a textarea becomes full for creating pagination effect. Using the .length property will not work, however, because long words 'jump' to new lines.
| I like to dooo| displays as | I like to |
| oooodle | | dooooooodle |
So what ends up happening is that the textarea always runs out of space before the .length property reaches the textarea limit. Is there any other way to detect textarea fullness? Jquery solutions are fine as well. Thanks.
