a) maxlength="xx"
b) use javascript
(document.forms["frm_name"].elements["textarea"].value.length)
      (I think you need the ".value" bit)

Subject: [PHP] Limiting text inputs by character count?


Is there a way to limit the number of characters that may be inputed into:
        a) a <input type=text . . . > input
        b) a <textarea . . . > input

I would like to control the maximum number of characters for each of these 
inputs.

Any suggestions of where to look, or how to do it, if it's possible, would
be 
greatly appreciated.

Tia,
Andre
