text box validation word count (asp.net)
Hello,
I have a text box assigned as nvarchar(2000) in the database but i really want it to be to a max 300 words.
I tryed using maxlegth in <asp:Textbox ID="txtN_Hero" runat="server" Width="600px" MaxLength="300"
and this didn't work. Is there any other validation to check for a max wording in this textbox? I can't change the database field because i have data on the database and it might shorten them out once i change it.
Thanks

To limit the number of words, first set the MaxLength to 2000 to ensure compliance with the database and then use validation to ensure the max number of words is not exceeded
