Hello, I think the main problem is, that there is no maxlength-attribute for a textfield in standard HTML.
A quick solution would be something like this: var tarea = new qx.ui.form.TextArea(); tarea.set({width: 100, height: 100}); tarea.addEventListener("input", function(e){ //check the length of your value },this); Tobias -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Tobias Koller (GERMO GmbH) Gesendet: Montag, 11.

I tried to use the method SetMaxLength() which the TextArea inherits from the TextField widget, but it doesn't work: tArea.setMaxLength(25); The user is unfortunately still able to enter more than 25 characters. Could this be broken?
