Set maxLength in tabular form Text Field

Text Fields do not have maxLength property in tabular forms. The default maxLength for a tabular form text field is 2000. This fails to restrict the text-field with custom length. However there always a workaround :)

You can use the following steps to influence this value at runtime.

1) Edit the column attributes for the tabular form column.
2) In the Tabular Form Element region - Element Attributes field enter the following (set the value 20 to the length you desire):

onFocus="javascript:this.maxLength=20;"

Note: The maxLength keyword is case-sensitive.

This will restrict the text-field to accept only 20 characters.
