Well there isn't a maxlength BUT after they hit submit, on the action page,
before it processes anything else, you can have CF COUNT the characters in
that
string and if they exceed a certain number you can give them a message
telling
them so. There are also javascripts that will count characters on the form
so
when a person types in their text they click the (count characters) button
to see
if it's too long. I think there are even some written that will not let them
hit submit until they fix the field.
