Resize Web Forms With All Browsers

I've seen browser specific extensions that allow the resizing of textboxes, but this one tops them all. It's a simple bit of JavaScript that you favorite place. Once it's on your favorite places you put the cursor in the text box you want to resize. You then visit the book mark, and resize away. For Internet Explorer you can just drag the book mark into the text box you want to resize. There is one downside "“ and that being you need to click the book mark each time you want to resize a textbox on a site. With an extension to Firefox you can just resize anything at will. But for something that works on all browsers, there will always be a downside. (Via)

If you happen to be a Firefox user, there are two other extensions you might be interested in. Search bar auto resizer is an extension that will resize the search box on the toolbar that comes with Firefox. The cool thing is it requires no interaction; meaning it does it for you automatically. As far as I know this only works on Firefox 2.0. If you want to resize web forms in Firefox, you'll be interested in Resizeable form fields. This allows you to drag and expand form fields in blogs or anywhere else. This one unlike the previous one works on Firefox 1.5 and up.
