Hello Daniel,

The dynanamictextarea.js interferes with my design.

Textarea is not scrollable, even if I apply overflow-y:auto

You can test the behaviour at http://www.planevo.de/blog/87-feedback-zu-coaching-seminaren.html#!/ccomment

I need to have a fixed height of 140px with scrollbar when a user enters long text.

I tried to set the height in default_form.php of my template:
[code type=html4strict] <textarea name='comment' class='ccomment-textarea required' cols='5' tabindex='5'
rows='20'
placeholder='Schreiben Sie hier Ihren Kommentar:*'
style='height:140px; overflow-y:auto'
></textarea>
[/code]

But everything I set there gets overridden by dynamictextarea.js, I guess.

So I set this in my template's css:
[code type=css].ccomment-textarea {
height: 140px !important;
}
[/code]

Now I have the fixed height. But when I enter many lines, they disappear out of view and I can't make the textarea scrollable.

How can I disable dynamictextarea.js? I tried commenting it out in default.php, line 52
[code type=php]//Jhtml::script('media/com_comment/js/dynamictextarea.js');
[/code]

But then the whole form doesn't load anymore.

Please help, thank you.

Cheers
