There is a plugin for
There is a plugin for character counting called "stat" but as far as how you handle the counts, that would be custom work, e.g., javascript, on your end. I am doing my checks on postback since .NET doesn't "do" textareas and I have other stuff to check on postback anyway. You will probably make a copy of "stat" and modify it to receive your max characters allowed and to alert users if they exceed the count, however, that will not stop people from copying and pasting too much stuff into it. You will still have to handle the input on submit. In addition to length, I have to check for malicious code.
