Today my client asked to implement SMS Counter and restriction to 150 characters in SMSalert.aspx form,I have done only Validation Control. I am working with SMS for the first time.
I need to validate a textbox that it should allow only certain characters and after the limit is reached the textbox should not allow entering characters in it.It can be done by Javascript but dont know how to do..
I have a multiline textbox which can contain only 500 characters. Now i want to show the user the number of characters left as they are typing into the textbox as is the case when we use twitter.
1) Is it possible, in a multiline textbox, to automatically break to the next line after 100 characters? 2) If not, is it possible to parse the enter key as entered by the user to break the line in the code behind?
Some additional info:
The person requesting this does not think that the user should use a single line textbox limited to 100 characters and click an "Add Line" button to store that field in a table.
The person requesting this is of the belief that a DEC Alpha-based system that currently does this can be replicated on the web.
how to limit the number of characters per line in a multiline textbox? Any posibility to do this with javascript? I have the users enter a list of names and need to limit each. I hate to use another textbox to add each name. If so, I would then add them to a listbox instead so they could select and remove a name.
it's a multiline TextBox the MaxLength property does not work. At the moment I only see the option to use a CustomValidator with checking TextBox1.Text.Length on server side and perhaps in addition some Javascript client side validation.But isn't there a simpler way to do this, using the standard ASP.NET validators (RegularExpressionValidator, RangeValidator, CompareValidator, etc.)
On my current form I have it validating a Canadian Postal Address (xxx xxx). The space is optional but if the user does not use a space, then once the validation passes it will insert one. How can I count the first 3 characters of the textbox, insert a space, then add the rest of the characters?
I have a web application that users insert some comments to the database. But when they try to Write some non-Ascii character to textbox some strange characters apperars instaed of my entered characters.For example When i write ı it appears like this ı
I have a string with 100 characters and it is for me too long in one line. I want to make NewLine after each 25 characters. For example:
Instead: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua."
I have a application that takes a tab delimited text file parses and the inserts the data. Some of the data has international characters. My problem is it appears that my application is changing the characters. For Example the file might contain something lke this Andrlová and is converting it to this Andrlov�
I am passing this into a sproc. The datatypes for my paramater & DB Field is nVarChar(50). If I insert the data directly into my table or if I call my sproc from a query window and pass in some data it works fine, but when my app touches the data it appears to get messed with.
I'd like to have an asp.net textbox that people can paste content into and it works like notepad, i.e. no formatting or special characters will get entered. I take text and pass it to a web service which manipulates it and converts it into a tab delimited file. The problem I've experienced is sometimes people copy from MS Word and paste that content in and somehow even the tab characters etc. get passed to the web service. I run routines now to strip that information out but it would be so much easier if the textbox on the web page didn't capture anything but the text itself, i.e. visible characters (numbers, letters, punctuation).
Im developing a application in asp.net ,the problem i got was i have a grid view with textboxes in it where i can enter some data and store it into the database.But the problem ,i have to enter minimum 50 characters of data into it but the textbox is accepting only 30 characters.im getting the following error.String or binary data would be truncatedThe statement has been terminated.And i have also checked the datatypes of corresponding columns in the database.(they are set to archar(MAX))
I'm getting my text from a textbox from code-behind using control.Text() but I'm not getting the proper characters, I want "ÅÄÖ". Must be some problem with the text encoding but I've already checked my encoding settings in VS. Someone??
