How to refresh codemirror when it's parent div style becomes display block?

codemirror, javascript

Solution

Make sure you also call `refresh` when switching to the tab that contains the editor.

Problem

I'm using codemirror with textareas in a tabbed interface, when i'm not in the tab that contains codemirror and then go to it, I get empty white space without line numbers or the cursor, when I refresh the page it works, I know it's because the tabs content is hidden using `display: none;` so how can I fix this issue ? here's my code, (I'm also using jquery): ``` var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea(document.getElementById($this.attr('id')), { lineNumbers: true, mode: text/html, enterMode: "keep", tabMode: "shift" }); $(editor.getScrollerElement()).width(300); width = $(editor.getScrollerElement()).parent().width(); $(editor.getScrollerElement()).width(width); editor.refresh(); ``` thanks in advance.
