Mark,
Check this out. It came through a couple days ago from the Javascript
Update list:
======
Forms -> Limit Textarea
http://forms.javascriptsource.com/limit-textarea.html
1.37 KB * Uploaded May 22 2000
This script controls a maximum textarea input amount and updates a
small counter with how many characters are left with each keystroke.
(Dynamic fix update now allows you to use this script in multiple
textboxes on a page.)
======
Hope that helps.
