Hi is there a way to truncate an entry made in the text box? For instance, Jane would be J.

Are you talking about a Text Entry Box? When would you want truncating to

happen?

When it passed the variable.

??? You mean after the TEB is validated or after having clicked the Submit button? You would be able to change the value of the variable (with JS) but it will not be relfected in the TEB field. That is an old pain, I am only aware of being able to do that for HTML5 output with the CpExtra widget by InfoSemantics.
