LimitAndShowCharInTextBox.zip

In this blog, I am going to show how we can limit the number of character in a text box and show how many character are left to type in ASP.NET c# using jQuery.

See given below code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<title>Limit & Show Character Length</title>
<script src="jquery-1.8.2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(function() {
// Checking Address Length
$('#txtAddress').keyup(function() {
var Address = $('#txtAddress').val();
var Addresslen = Address.length;
if (Address.length >= 250) {
this.value = this.value.substring(0, 250);
}
$('#spanAddress').text(250 - Addresslen + ' Characters Left');
});
//Checking Description Length
$('#txtDescription').keyup(function() {
var Description = $('#txtDescription').val();
var Descriptionlen = Description.length;
if (Description.length >= 500) {
this.value = this.value.substring(0, 500);
}
$('#spanDescription').text(500 - Descriptionlen + ' Characters Left');
});
});
</script>
