    You need to set the CSS `resize' property on your textareas to  
`horizontal', `vertical', or `both' depending on the behavior you  
want. You could do this by modifying your CSS source files or  
programmatically adding styles at run time through the CSSOM. A rule  
such as:

textarea {
     resize: both;
}

would make all textareas resizable both horizontally and vertically.
