Textbox MaxLength property
Posted: 20 Mar 08 12:48 PM

Under v7.2.1 the MaxLength property for TextBox object does not seem to work if MultiLine = True.
Has anyone used the property?

I am seeing the same results. A quick google turned up this: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/custom-controls/textlengthvalidator.aspx - Looks like an asp.net limitation as opposed to an slx limitation.
Actually what happens is that the asp.net multiline textbox gets rendered as an HTML text area that has no maxlength property. So another method must be used like javascript or this RegularExpressionValidator - where the 200 is the length you want to limit - this control will fire on a postback, so it doesn't actually limit how much people can type but will let them know they typed too much when exiting the control:
(Leading Less sign omited as forum want to render as a tag.)
asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="txtConclusionValidator1" ControlToValidate="txtAddContactEmail" Text="Exceeding 200 characters" ValidationExpression="^[\s\S]{0,200}$" runat="server" /> |
