cfform... and cftextarea

[SilentBob_secretfusion]

Hi all,

This tag isn't working with a cfform... any ideas?

<cftextarea name="comments" cols="100" rows="5" wrap="soft" class="classmainfont" id="comments" maxlength="1500" ></cftextarea>

The maxlength is specifically not working. Thanks.

Specify maxLength validation in the validate attribute and onBlur in the validateAt attribute as shown below.

<cftextarea name="comments" cols="100" rows="5" wrap="soft" class="classmainfont" id="comments" maxLength="1500" validate = "maxLength" validateAt= "onBlur"></cftextarea>

Is that coldfusion 7?

From the online docs

quote:

---

The maximum length of text that can be entered. ColdFusion uses this attribute only if you specify maxlength in the validate attribute
