	<div class="description">

		<p>

			This sample shows how to configure CKEditor instances to use the

			<strong>AutoGrow</strong> (<code>autogrow</code>) plugin that lets the editor window expand

			and shrink depending on the amount and size of content entered in the editing area.

		</p>

		<p>

			In its default implementation the <strong>AutoGrow feature</strong> can expand the

			CKEditor window infinitely in order to avoid introducing scrollbars to the editing area.

		</p>

		<p>

			It is also possible to set a maximum height for the editor window. Once CKEditor

			editing area reaches the value in pixels specified in the

			<code><a class="samples" href="https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor4/latest/api/CKEDITOR_config.html#cfg-autoGrow_maxHeight">autoGrow_maxHeight</a></code>

			configuration setting, scrollbars will be added and the editor window will no longer expand.

		</p>

		<p>

			To add a CKEditor instance using the <code>autogrow</code> plugin and its

			<code>autoGrow_maxHeight</code> attribute, insert the following JavaScript call to your code:

		</p>

<pre class="samples">

CKEDITOR.replace( '<em>textarea_id</em>', {

	<strong>extraPlugins: 'autogrow',</strong>

	autoGrow_maxHeight: 800,



	// Remove the Resize plugin as it does not make sense to use it in conjunction with the AutoGrow plugin.

	removePlugins: 'resize'

});</pre>

		<p>

			Note that <code><em>textarea_id</em></code> in the code above is the <code>id</code> attribute of

			the <code>&lt;textarea&gt;</code> element to be replaced with CKEditor. The maximum height should

			be given in pixels.

		</p>

	</div>

	<form action="../../../samples/sample_posteddata.php" method="post">

			<label for="editor1">
