TIL HN: You can resize the text box for replies

1 pointWJW3 comments

Have been on this site for years, never noticed it. Super nice though!

That's what those little diagonal lines in the corner are indicating.

It's actually an old webkit feature.

Firefox has also allowed text input boxes to be resized for quite a while now.

HN might be one of the few web sites still around that uses a simple HTML <form> for input, so people might not be familiar with this basic browser feature anymore.
