jQuery resize() method

The jQuery resize() method triggers a resize event when the size of the browser window changes. It binds the event handler to resize an event or trigger that event on an element. This method can be used to perform some required actions such as avoiding scrollbars when adjusting the elements of the page on window resize, and many more.

If the resize event triggers and the element's dimension changes, the content inside the elements also adjusts as well.

Syntax

This method accepts an optional parameter function, which specifies the function to execute every time the resize event is triggered.
