Hi,
Call a javascript method onKeyPressDown to validate the length.
----------------------CODE------------------
<script>
function checkLength(obj,max){
if(obj.value.length>max){
alert(obj.name+" feild cannot be more than "+max);
}
}
</script>
<BODY>
/// some HTML
<TEXTAREA NAME="textAreaName" onKeyDown="javascript:return
checkLength(this,30)"></TEXTAREA>
/// some HTML
----------------------CODE------------------
This will work like a text box maxlength property.
If you want to restrict ctrl+v also , you need to call this method on
corresponding key combination.
Regards,
Nagesh
