I was wondering how we can make a HTML element like <div> or <p> tag element resizable when clicked using pure JavaScript, not the jQuery library or any other library.
I really recommend using some sort of library, but you asked for it, you get it:
var p = document.querySelector('p'); // element to make resizable
p.addEventListener('click', function init() {
p.removeEventListener('click', init, false);
p.className = p.className + ' resizable';
var resizer = document.createElement('div');
resizer.className = 'resizer';
p.appendChild(resizer);
resizer.addEventListener('mousedown', initDrag, false);
}, false);
var startX, startY, startWidth, startHeight;
function initDrag(e) {
startX = e.clientX;
startY = e.clientY;
startWidth = parseInt(document.defaultView.getComputedStyle(p).width, 10);
startHeight = parseInt(document.defaultView.getComputedStyle(p).height, 10);
document.documentElement.addEventListener('mousemove', doDrag, false);
document.documentElement.addEventListener('mouseup', stopDrag, false);
}
function doDrag(e) {
p.style.width = (startWidth + e.clientX - startX) + 'px';
p.style.height = (startHeight + e.clientY - startY) + 'px';
}
function stopDrag(e) {
document.documentElement.removeEventListener('mousemove', doDrag, false);
document.documentElement.removeEventListener('mouseup', stopDrag, false);
}
Demo
Remember that this may not run in all browsers (tested only in Firefox, definitely not working in IE <9).
what about a pure css3 solution?
div {
resize: both;
overflow: auto;
}
MDN Web Docs
W3Schools example
Browser support
Is simple:
Example:https://jsfiddle.net/RainStudios/mw786v1w/
var element = document.getElementById('element');
//create box in bottom-left
var resizer = document.createElement('div');
resizer.style.width = '10px';
resizer.style.height = '10px';
resizer.style.background = 'red';
resizer.style.position = 'absolute';
resizer.style.right = 0;
resizer.style.bottom = 0;
resizer.style.cursor = 'se-resize';
//Append Child to Element
element.appendChild(resizer);
//box function onmousemove
resizer.addEventListener('mousedown', initResize, false);
//Window funtion mousemove & mouseup
function initResize(e) {
window.addEventListener('mousemove', Resize, false);
window.addEventListener('mouseup', stopResize, false);
}
//resize the element
function Resize(e) {
element.style.width = (e.clientX - element.offsetLeft) + 'px';
element.style.height = (e.clientY - element.offsetTop) + 'px';
}
//on mouseup remove windows functions mousemove & mouseup
function stopResize(e) {
window.removeEventListener('mousemove', Resize, false);
window.removeEventListener('mouseup', stopResize, false);
}

just using the mousemove event in vanilla js
steps
add the mousemove to your target
listen to the target move event
get the pointer position, resize your target
codes
const div = document.querySelector(`div.before`);
const box = document.querySelector(`div.container`);
box.addEventListener(`mousemove`, (e) => {
const {

offsetY,
} = e;
div.style.width = offsetX + `px`;

Basically, here is the class that does this.
let getPropertyValue = function(style, prop) {
let value = style.getPropertyValue(prop);
value = value ? value.replace(/[^0-9.]/g, '') : '0';
return parseFloat(value);
}
let getElementRect = function(element) {
let style = window.getComputedStyle(element, null);
return {
x: getPropertyValue(style, 'left'),
y: getPropertyValue(style, 'top'),
width: getPropertyValue(style, 'width'),
height: getPropertyValue(style, 'height')
}

I have created a function that recieve an id of an html element and adds a border to it's right side
the function is general and just recieves an id so you can copy it as it is and it will work
var myoffset;
function resizeE(elem){
var borderDiv = document.createElement("div");
borderDiv.className = "border";
borderDiv.addEventListener("mousedown",myresize = function myrsize(e) {
myoffset = e.clientX - (document.getElementById(elem).offsetLeft + parseInt(window.getComputedStyle(document.getElementById(elem)).getPropertyValue("width")));
window.addEventListener("mouseup",mouseUp);
document.addEventListener("mousemove",mouseMove = function mousMove(e) {
document.getElementById(elem).style.width = `${e.clientX - myoffset - document.getElementById(elem).offsetLeft}px`;
});
});
document.getElementById(elem).appendChild(borderDiv);
}
function mouseUp() {
document.removeEventListener("mousemove", mouseMove);
window.removeEventListener("mouseup",mouseUp);
}
function load()
{
resizeE("resizeableDiv");
resizeE("anotherresizeableDiv");
resizeE("anotherresizeableDiv1");
}
.border {
position: absolute;
cursor: e-resize;
width: 9px;
right: -5px;
top: 0;
height: 100%;
}
#resizeableDiv {

height: 30vh;
background-color: #84f4c6;
position: relative;
}
#anotherresizeableDiv {

position: relative;
}
#anotherresizeableDiv1 {
width: 30vw;
height: 30vh;
background-color: #43f4f4;
position: relative;
}
#anotherresizeableDiv1 .border{
background-color: black;
}
#anotherresizeableDiv .border{
width: 30px;
right: -200px;
background-color: green;
}
<body onload="load()">
<div id="resizeableDiv">change my size with the east border</div>
<div id="anotherresizeableDiv1">with visible border</div>
</body>
<div id="anotherresizeableDiv">with editted outside border</div>
</body>
resizeE("resizeableDiv"); //this calls a function that does the magic to the id inserted
There are very good examples here to start trying with, but all of them are based on adding some extra or external element like a "div" as a reference element to drag it, and calculate the new dimensions or position of the original element.
Here's an example that doesn't use any extra elements. We could add borders, padding or margin without affecting its operation.
In this example we have not added color, nor any visual reference to the borders nor to the lower right corner as a clue where you can enlarge or reduce dimensions, but using the cursor around the resizable elements the clues appears!
let resizerForCenter = new Resizer('center')
resizerForCenter.initResizer()
See it in action with CodeSandbox:
In this example we use ES6, and a module that exports a class called Resizer.
An example is worth a thousand words:

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but you can always use CSS resize property and add it to an element using javascript; For example lets say you have a div element with the id myDiv and you want to make it resizable:
document.getElementById("myDiv").style.resize = "both";
here's the related links:
Style resize Property
CSS resize Property
var resizeHandle = document.getElementById('resizable');
var box = document.getElementById('resize');
resizeHandle.addEventListener('mousedown', initialiseResize, false);
function initialiseResize(e) {
window.addEventListener('mousemove', startResizing, false);
window.addEventListener('mouseup', stopResizing, false);
}
function stopResizing(e) {
window.removeEventListener('mousemove', startResizing, false);
window.removeEventListener('mouseup', stopResizing, false);
}
function startResizing(e) {
box.style.width = (e.clientX) + 'px';
box.style.height = (e.clientY) + 'px';
}
function startResizing(e) {
box.style.width = (e.clientX - box.offsetLeft) + 'px';
box.style.height = (e.clientY - box.offsetTop) + 'px';
