limiting characters

[kmcculler]

Does anyone know how I can not allow the user to enter more than 25 characters inside of a textbox? I'm working with a CGI script(web page) and I get oracle errors if the text is greater in length than 25 (all data is updated to oracle) increasing the size in oracle is not an option..... Thanks

Use the maxlength attribute in your input definition:
<input type='text' size=25 maxlength=25 name='whatever'>
