Resizable containment (like draggable)

Resizable containment (like draggable)


Hello all. I'm new to the group (and fairly new to jQuery), so I
apologize if this has already been brought up.
I need an element to be both horizontally draggable and east-west
resizable, both within the bounds of a parent div. I see draggable
has a containment option which works great for what I need, but
resizable only has a maxWidth option to limit its size at any given
point in time. I cannot seem to find a solution that prevents
resizing outside the bounds of the parent div. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for the help!
