Subject: TextArea woes
Hi guys,
I remember seeing a page once in the past where the <textarea> had a
countdown. I want users to only type in 120 characters but it would be
nice for them to see the amount of characters they have left to use
dynanically changing.
This will be used for text messaging (120 characters for the user and
then 40 for a footer that I'll use with standard info).
If anyone knows a way of doing this please notify.
Thanks,
Stuart
