Try this:
<input type="text" name="textfield" maxlength="10">
the maxlength will limit the number of characters to 10 in this instance

Hi all,
Can anyone suggest the best method to limit the number of characters =
entered into a textarea?
I seem to remember someone offering JS code that did just that on this =
list.
Thanks,
James
