catalog item multiline text field? Or HTML text field?


catalog item multiline text field


Try below catalog client script,



find_real_file.png



function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {


    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {


          return;


    }


    var multi = g_form.getValue('multi');


    var len = multi.length;


  if(len>4000){


  var str = multi.slice(0,4000);


  g_form.setValue('multi',str);


  alert('Length exceeded');


  }


}


I didn't explain myself properly,


I don't want to allow enter more then 4,000 characters, so when the user enter the 4,000 character he can't type anymore.
Just like the Variable attributes max_lenght in Single Line Text.
