Max Length is an accessory add-on for ExpressionEngine that provides a small, unobtrusive indicator for how many characters an input type has left before reaching its maximum length.
Max Length will augment all Text Input types and any other inputs with a maxlength attribute with this functionality. No setup. No configuration.
While we have incentive to keep this project working because we use it frequently, we are not always available to provide support for the Max Length plugin. We therefore offer it to you, free of charge, but with no guarantee of support. Find something that's not working? Or could be improved? By all means, fix it! Submit a pull request, and we'll pull it into the project so everyone can benefit. But please, no hard feelings if we can't help you when it's not working. Go forth and Open Source.
