Input Length Is Being Limited To 20 Characters - keith10456 - Aug 27th, 2009
For some reason the input of my fields are being limited to 20 characters.
In Form Tools Under the "Fields" tab I have the "Field Type" set to "Textbox" (and "Database field size" is set to Medium <= 256).
Under the "Database" tab I have the "Field Size" set to "Medium <= 256".
However, regardless of how much text I type in the fields... Upon receiving the results it's limited to 20.
I'm using FT v 2.0.0-beta-20090826
Below is the code from my form:
Code:
<form action="http://mysite.com/forms/process.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<table class="mytblmd">
<th colspan="2">WEB PAGE UPDATE FORM</th>
<tr>
<td>Your Name</td>
<td><input type="text" name="name" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Website Username</td>
<td><input type="text" name="username" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>E-mail Address</td>
<td><input type="text" name="email" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Organization Name</td>
<td><input type="text" name="org_name" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Page URL On This Site</td>
<td><input type="text" name="url" size="40"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Update Type</td>
<td><select name="type">
<option value="select">- Select One -</option>
<option value="EditPageContent">Edit Page Content</option>
<option value="ReplacePageConent">Replace Page Content</option>
<option value="AddContent">Add Content To Page</option>
<option value="Multiple">Multiple Changes</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Update Description</td>
<td><textarea name="descr" rows="12" cols="30"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Attachment</td>
<td><input type="file" name="attachment" size="30"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><center><input type="submit" value="Submit"></center>
</tr>
</table>
<input type="hidden" name="form_tools_form_id" value="6" />
</form>* Edit - I even tried using the "max length" attribute... Still no success:
Code:
<input type="text" maxlength="256" name="name" size="40">RE: Input Length Is Being Limited To 20 Characters - keith10456 - Aug 27th, 2009
I deleted the Form and re-added it. Now it works fine.
I think this was a result of me upgrading from beta 1 to the latest...
I'm going to test my other forms and I'll post back.
After reviewing my submissions I realized that the problem couldn't have been the result of the upgraded because the same problem existed BEFORE I upgraded.
In any event, I deleted and re-added all of the forms that I had the issue with and now all is well.

No, it wasnt because of the upgrade. I had the same problem. Instead, I guess i put the code into site and retried to get fields automatically again and put <256charc.
