Bug ID: 27991
Summary: Message field for OPAC problem reporting should have a
maxlength set
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: 20.05
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: OPAC
Assignee: [email protected]

Currently when a user is submitting a problem report via the OPAC at
opac-reportproblem.pl, they can write as much as they want in the "message"
field. When the report is submitted, only the first 255 characters are kept due
to the field size of problem_reports.content which can result in a cut off
message.
It would be good to set a maxlength for the field and also make users aware of
the limit. I'm using jQuery to set the maxlength attribute and add a character
countdown so users know exactly how much they can type.
//Problem Reporting
$(document).ready(function() {
//Enforce character limit on message field
$('#opac-reportproblem #message').attr('maxlength', '255');
//Add character countdown
$('#opac-reportproblem #message').after('<span
id="charcounter">255</span> characters remaining');
//Update character countdown as data is entered
var maxLength = 255;
$('#opac-reportproblem #message').keyup(function() {
var length = $(this).val().length;
var length = maxLength-length;
$('#opac-reportproblem #charcounter').text(length);
});
});
