how to validate textbox to have limited characters ??
the number of charcters are coming from backend..............if its more then maxlenth hoe to clean textbox
for ex:max characters=10.........when textbox opens already have 20 characters how to remove extras and make it 10.and if less den 10 allow to enter only 10 characters......
maxlength is coming from server.
$(function () {
alert("maxWords");
// to count charecters in CompanyProfile
$('#txtCompanyProfile').keyup(function () {
var maxWords = document.getElementById('<%= hiddenProfileMaxValue.ClientID%>').value;
var cs = $(this).val().length;
$('#characters').text(cs);
$('#txtCompanyProfile').keypress(function (e) {
if (e.which < 0x20) {
return; // Do nothing
}
if (this.value.length == maxWords || this.value.length > maxWords)
{
e.preventDefault();
alert("Only " + maxWords + " characters are allowed.");
} else if (this.value.length > maxWords) {
// Maximum exceeded
this.value = this.value.substring(0, max);
}
});
});
});
