What the.... RE: Signature length text? by prashker on 05-07-2007 at 11:11 PM WDZ's solution to 'characters dont count in [blah] tags' ? . RE: Signature length text? by WDZ on 05-07-2007 at 11:12 PM I had to disable that old Javascript-based length limiter when I made the changes described here: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=73653 RE: Signature length text? by Rolando on 05-07-2007 at 11:13 PM

I thought this would be the main problem with the feature, getting the javascript to work around it. The Javascript code has always been dodgy for signature length. I think PHP should be used to display how many characters you have remaining (of course the real time effect will be gone) . RE: Signature length text? by Lou on 05-08-2007 at 08:57 PM
