Hi Guys - Today I was working on a small issue where I had to add some client side validation.
The fix was to add limit to the number of chars in a text area. The fix is as easy as adding 'maxlength=n' attribute.
But this can be circumvented easily in the client side. So what ?
In the server side, are we going to throw an error and raise an exception that the text is too long ?
Well another way is to truncate this text.
In ruby, simply do this -
This will simply truncate the text
Thanks
