Solution 3

C#

int size = 5;

int finalWidth = size* txtBox.Text.Length;

txtBox.Width = new Unit(finalWidth);

 You'll need to change size to be how big you want to allow per letter.

Solution 1

Google [^]is your friend. This has been done so many times that internet is full of examples.

If you want to use jQuery, this [^]one is a good example.
