Hi All,

How I do to restrict the number of characters of TextEdit component that can be entered?

I have tried to create a simple data type with maximun length, but don't work with TextEdit. This work fine with InputField component.

How I do to solve this issue?

Hi Suresh,

In SAP NetWeaver 2004s SPS 07 the functionality has some errors during copy/pasting texts into TextEdit. Version 2004s SPS 08 will contain patch to fix this.

Thanks for all replies!!!

I was seeing this problems, but I wasn't sure.

I think that the solution is make the validation when the user send this data to the server.

Hi Lucinano,

SAP NetWeaver 2004s supporting the restriction of textEdit component using simple type.

SAP Netweaver Developer Studio Version is: 7.0.07

which version of SAP Netweaver developer studio your using.

Luciano,

WD HTML Client uses corresponding HTML controls for rendering. So, <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" / > has attribute "maxlength", however <TEXTAREA> has not.

So it is impossible to solve this issue unless WD team enhances rendering code.

Anyway, you should receive validation error when data (that exceeds limit) is submitted.

Hi Luciano,

I think you cannot restrict maximum charater length using simple type. but when your are going for server action it will throw error message as you have exceeded the maximum length of TextEdit.
