Resizing a Text Field

[Ralph DiMola]

Peter,

I have a routine that will resize a text field with 1 or more lines(also
works for buttons). Have you solved the problem yet? If not I will send it
to you. It's part of my mobile resizing library.

Hi,
Does anyone have a quick and dirty script for resizing a field to fit text
content?
