Text Box Control MaxLenght Property Is Not Working

Hi All,

I have developed one web application.
In that I used aspnet web textBox control.
I have set maxlength property for that text box 300 and TextMode property as
multiline .

When i typed more than 3 or 4 line each line contains 30 to 40 characters,
If i clicked button for passing textbox value, that time my web page is not
responsding (no action taken).

The same page without refereshing if i delete some characters from my
textbox.
It is working.

Can someone help me for this?

A TextBox in MultiLine mode is rendered as a TextArea HTML control. TextArea
as opposed to an Imput control does not have a maxlength property. It will
be ignored in the TextBox.

There are some 3rd party controls and projects out there that attempt to
control length with javascript for a multiline textbox. I haven't used any
of them so can't comment.

Ah yeah...

Try using a javscript function like:

function limitTextarea(textarea, maxlength) {
if (textarea.value.length > maxlength)
textarea.value = textarea.value.substring(0, maxlength);
}

and set the onchange attribute (either programatically with
textbox.attribute.add() or declaratively) on the textbox to call the
function.

text box cursor position on entry

Hi I want the cursor to align left when someone clicks in textbox.

textbox has maxlength of 7 when user clicks in text box

the cursor is at position 2 so they cant enter all 7 digits of number

without clicking home and reentering number.

It sounds to me like the textbox has some default text in it already. Otherwise, it would be at the left when they click in. Post your code so we can take a look.
As, suggested please check the Text property. By default when you click inside the TextBox is should align to the left at position "0".

add this in page_load...

sub page_load(byval sender as object, byval e as system.eventargs) handles page.load

txt1.text=""

end sub

cheers

moredotnet

thanks for the replies, I have put txtbox.text="" in page load will see what happens.

please use me.load instead of page.load

cheers
