RailsLodge - Textarea With Status plugin

Textarea With Status plugin

Just a little helper for all those text areas out there that need to display their left chars (and also limit the textarea to not exceed them).

Websitehttp://code.google.com/p/text-area-with-status/ Repositoryhttp://text-area-with-status.googlecode.com/svn/tags/text_area_with_status Author Alexandru Ungur Tags TextArea, form LicenseMIT

Install the plugin:

ruby script/plugin install http://text-area-with-status.googlecode.com/svn/tags/text_area_with_status

The plugin adds two new options to text_area and text_area_tag helpers:

  :max_chars => 50 #Maximum_number_of_characters

and

:max_chars_msg => 'Status message'

e.g.

<%= f.text_area :description, :max_chars => 100 %>

<%= f.text_area :description, :max_chars => 100, :max_chars_msg => 'You only have %d chars left.' %>

There is currently no advanced documentation for this plugin.
