Hi there , gotta question (again <img src=icon_smile_8ball.gif border=0 align=middle>

I have my text field limited up to 70 chars but when somebody paste a bigger string in it (perhaps 150 chars) the text field just swallows it and tries to insert into my dbase , after that I get an error that the page could not insert because the data would be truncated.

Is there a way to validate from the server side or an advanced java script validator that checks for the amount of chars before submitting.

Thnx <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

[hi
will this work for you?
varLength = len(formvariable)
if varLength &gt;70 then
now do validation request to customer

if you need more form validation code let me know. i will send you a sample of a sophisticated one that handles most types of validation rules.
have a good day, michael moore]

I too have some from Validation question in regards to drop down menus, check boxes, and radio buttons. Does anyone have an extension that will check for the True/False of one of these elements being checked, or chosen? The built in Extension in UD only checks for Text Fields....
