Allow modals to increase in size

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Please describe the feature you would like to see and how it would help you
and others better use SimpleModal (try and be specific):

 * SimpleModal 1.3-b1 - jQuery Plugin

Size of modals' decreases but does not increase. Create an option or
ability to allow for flexible increase & decrease in size. 

Quick and dirty hack;  in setContainerDimensions() add to height/width if
statements "|| this.opts.flexsizeheight" and "|| this.opts.flexsizewidth".
When method is called on window re-size the pop-up will always pretend
there is no already set height or width when these options are set. This
allows the modal to increase in size based on data/min/max.

I think the "clean way" to preform this is to detect if there is a preset
width and/or height in create() and set a private boolean. Then respect
those presets values in setContainerDimensions() by using the boolean
instead of the option value outlined above.

I hope that was clear, but somehow doubt it.

Thanks for the suggestion. One thing I changed from 1.3-b1 was I added an 
autoResize
option, which is false by default. So, by default, the container will not be 
resized
when the window is resized.

I think having it increase in size, might be cool - I'm just not sure it is 
worth the
extra code/conditions that it might take...especially now that I changed it to 
not
resize by default.

Thoughts?

It sounds like it might be best left to the next release. Unfortunately I've 
spent
all the time that I've had budgeted so I can't submit a proper patch.

The "hack" I used would split the autoResize option you mention into two 
options.
Something like autoResizeWidth, autoResizeHeight. If you want to go ahead with 
this I
suggest:
 create()
   if ( ! autoResizeHeight ) autoResizeHeight = autoResize;
   if ( ! autoResizeWidth ) autoResizeWidth = autoResize;
 setContainerDimensions()
   // height
   if (!ch || this.opts.autoResizeHeight ) {
   // width 
   if (!cw || this.opts.autoResizeWidth ) {

Its not perfect but it works great for my dynamic content in the pop-ups if I 
set
.simplemodal-data { width: 500px; }

I'm adding a new function in SimpleModal that will allow you to update the 
container size and re-bind events. It will be in the next release.

1.4 should contain the functions necessary to resize the dialog.
