I could not make this work using IE6/javascript. Maybe I am doing something wrong.
Added the line to the css as above to add the behavior to TEXTAREA. Added the htc file with the code from above - just changed the SCRIPT LANGUAGE = Javascript. Used the input tag as <TEXTAREA MAXLENGTH=5> as a test. It just doesn't do anything. | ||

Since it doesn't work I'm sure I've got it wrong. Can you take it one step further and advise as to the correct syntax? Will this even work with more than one textarea field? Thank you! | ||

Oh, that answered both questions too!!!
I know, I'm too late, but I think it's still the best way to do it, if not, please let me know a better one. Thx. | ||
