where you want to set this limit? because you should add some js function if in administration or substr description in php if on client side...

hi wewior
i want to set this limit character in the full descriptions form. any solutions ?

tx

* in ''templates/page.tpl'' file in block head after:
var cfTxtToShort = ''$lang[cf_txt_to_short]'';
add:
var cfTxtToLong = ''$lang[cf_txt_to_long]'';

* in ''lang/en.php'' file (for example) add variable ''$lang['cf_txt_to_short']'' with info about too long text

* in ''js/checkForm.js'' file add function:
function checkTxtMax( oObj, iMax, sInfo ) {
if( !iMax )
var iMax = 1000;

var check = oObj.value.replace( reS, '''' );

var bCheck = true;
if( check.length > iMax ){
bCheck = false;
if( !sInfo )
var sInfo = cfTxtToLong;
}
return fieldOperations( oObj, bCheck, sInfo );
} // end function checkTxtMax
and then in that file after:
else if( ( sT == 'txt' ) && ( ( aA[i][4] === true && oO.value ) || !aA[i][4] ) ) {
bAllGood = checkTxt( oO, aA[i][2], aA[i][3] );
}
add:
else if( ( sT == 'txtMax' ) && ( ( aA[i][4] === true && oO.value ) || !aA[i][4] ) ) {
bAllGood = checkTxtMax( oO, aA[i][2], aA[i][3] );
}

* in file ''templates/admin/products_form.php'' in block FORM after:
,Array( 'sDescriptionShort' )
add:
,Array( 'sDescriptionFull', 'txtMax', 30 )

tested, works fine
