With a standard multiline textbox I can add

onFocus='this.style.height=300px' 
onBlur='this.style.height=100px' 


How do I acomplish this with the RadTextBox?

I setup a shared javascript function to handle the resizing of the RTB by passing a paramater, but I can't seem to pass parameters to it. 
function resizeRTB(obj, height, width)
{
obj._originalTextBoxCssText = "width:" + width + "px;height:" + height + "px;"; obj.updateCssClass();
}

If I do something like this, I get JavaScript errors because I'm trying to pass parameters to the function
<telerik:RadTextBox ID="rtbExample" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine"  Width="550px" Height="150px" EmptyMessage="Example text..."  ClientEvents-OnFocus='resizeRTB(this,300,550);'  ClientEvents-OnBlur='resizeRTB(this,150,550);' />

I need one function to handle a whole set of dynamically created RadTextBoxes, so I need the function to be reusable. Could someone guide or point me to what I'm doing wrong here?

Hi Jeremy,

In order to make it work you can try to hook the events like this:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    rtbExample.Attributes.Add("onfocus", String.Format("resizeRTB($find('{0}'), 300, 550)", RadTextBox1.ClientID));
    rtbExample.Attributes.Add("onblur", String.Format("resizeRTB($find('{0}'), 150, 550)", RadTextBox1.ClientID));
}
