Well, I do not pretend this to be a hack, nor do I know if someone else has done it. I found it somewhere and thought that it could be useful to some.

In newthread template find:

<textarea name="message" rows="20" cols="$textareacols" wrap="virtual" tabindex="2">$message</textarea>

and replace with:

<textarea name="message" rows="20" cols="$textareacols" wrap="virtual" tabindex="2" onkeypress="compter(this.form)">$message</textarea><input type="text" name="nbcar" size=3>

then Set the var max= to your config in the script below and place the javascript anywhere between <body> and </body>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
var max=2000;
function compter(f) {
var txt=f.message.value;
var nb=txt.length;
if (nb>=0) {
nb=nb+1;
}
if (nb>max) {
alert("Can't have more than "+max+" characters in your post");
f.message.value=txt.substring(0,max);
nb=max;
}
f.nbcar.value=nb;
}

function timer() {
compter(document.forms["form1"]);
setTimeout("timer()",100);
}

</SCRIPT>

Use it for the other templates too.

After I posted, I found this which I think is much nicer.

Don't worry, I like your style better, thanks :).

Shenlong 01-10-2002 11:29 PM
I agree, your style is much better and easier to configure, thanks so mcuh for this hack! A+! Make some more!

By the way, heres a message from a user:

Teleblaze,
Thanks for installing that message hack, sometimes I was posting a long tutorial and didn't know when my characters would run out, now I know perfectly and such an easy location to see! Whoever made this, thank them!

Sincerely,
XX_Reaper_XX
^Look, a happy user^

Thanks again!

Hey, how do I make the box appear, the script is easy for the visitors to see but the box would be nicer, how do I add that, the only thing it says is:

[check character length]

All there is to it is to adjust your html accordingly. For example if you want to make the input bigger just say so in the input size.

BTW, I unistalled and placed a modified html hack of the other one. It looks nicer and I will encourage people to use it.

Jawelin 01-11-2002 06:58 AM
As I can see, the other's hack is still under revisioning...
Meanwhile, I installed yours ! ;)
Thanks a lot.
