multi line text box max length

[Kieran Breen]

Hiya,

I was just wondering if anyone knows how to impose a maximum length on a
muti line text box in asp.net. There is a parameter for this but even when
its set it dosent seem to make any difference.

Thanks in advance,

Kieran.

This question was just asked....check out

The first couple links should be hwat you are looking for. Multiline
doesn't work because the html textarea doesn't support it....

try this :

txtRemarks.Attributes.Add("onkeypress","return remarksLength()");

function remarksLength()
{
if (document.all('txtRemarks').value.length >= 155)
{
alert('Remarks cant be more than 155 characters');
return false;
}
return true;
}
