Status msg...location?...

anyone know where the status form is generated in what file. what i want to do is limit on how many characters can be entered.

i need an answer to this like right now!Please

some how it doesn't make much sense to me that you can enter an unlimited text msg, but you cant view it.

member.php

It appears this php code...

$sOnclick = (strtolower($this->aMemberInfo['UserStatus']) == strtolower($sKey)) ? "" : "onclick=\"if (typeof oBxUserStatus != 'undefined' ) { oBxUserStatus.setUserStatus('$sKey', $(this).parents('ul:first')); $('#user_status_ac .block_collapse_btn').attr('src', aDolImages['collapse_closed']); $('#user_status_ac').parent().toggleClass('collapsed').next('tbody').fadeOut(400); location.reload(); }return false\"";

Is associated with this html code

<input id="UserStatusMessBut_mm" class="form_input_text" type="text" onkeyup="if(typeof oBxUserStatus != 'undefined'){oBxUserStatus.sendStatusMessage(event, this)}" name="status_message" value="">

Thank you for your post,  i looked at it and it looks like that function is for the member's status (membership status) active,suspended...etc..

Try templates/base/member_menu_status_text_field.html

add

MAXLENGTH=40

right after

name="status_message"

40 is whatever number you want.

very sexy thank you, i just needed the file ill post my modification in a few.. and you're welcome to try it out lol.

your welcome, but your message limiter tip looks alot sexier..lol   Nice work.
