lordvader Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Sometimes a blog post's comment will be too long. I want to enforce a maximum character limit, and if the comment exceeds this then it is presented with a slider so you can still read the whole comment, but the comment won't take up too much space. You know, like how your browser deals with long webpages. I don't think iframes are suitable here, so how could I do this? I don't need specifics, just the general concept and proper buzzwords. I can look it up myself. Thanks On re-reading this, I realize this is not necessarily a php question (although my site is written in php). Sorry about that.

.josh Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Are you wanting like a textarea with a set height like so? <textarea height = '2' width = '20'> asdflkjsafd asdflkjsdflkj asdflkjsfdl sdflkjsadflkj </textarea> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordvader Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 That's really close - however the formatting shows up along with the text - stuff like line breaks, new paragraph symbol, etc. Is there a way to do this while allowing the html to render?
