Limiting a text form field - word count

[rob537]

I am adding a text field (Company Description) to a form and I need to limit the description to 50 words or less. How can I accomplish this. If it is a formula, I would appreciate an example.

You can set "character count limit" easily from the textfield's Properties > Options tab> Limit.

For word count limits you will have to set a custom javascript.

You can take a look at this discussion in the Forums: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1094129.

The forum link is a dead one. How would I find the discussion?
