/**

 * Please use as you wish at your own risk.

/**
 * Usage: From JavaScript, use: $jqjq(<node>).TextAreaExpander(<minHeight>,
 * <maxHeight>); where: <node> is the DOM node selector, e.g. "textarea"
 * <minHeight> is the minimum textarea height in pixels (optional) <maxHeight>
 * is the maximum textarea height in pixels (optional) Alternatively, in you
 * HTML: Assign a class of "expand" to any <textarea> tag. e.g. <textarea
 * name="textarea1" rows="3" cols="40" class="expand"></textarea> Or assign a
 * class of "expandMIN-MAX" to set the <textarea> minimum and maximum height.
 * e.g. <textarea name="textarea1" rows="3" cols="40" class="expand50-200"></textarea>
 * The textarea will use an appropriate height between 50 and 200 pixels.
