Hi,

urgent problem: In IE my form works fine, but in Firefox I have the problem that a free text field is limited obviously to a certain number of characters (not defined by myself). It is the following form:

umif.de/index.php/symposium-registration (Field: Abstract).

Any ideas why?

Best Regards and thanks for helping
Bernd

This is caused because you have the following attribute in the text field: maxlength="50;"

Yeah...I'm too stupid. I don't know why obviously I set it that way. Strange anyway, that IE does not restrict to it? Problem solved, thanks a lot!

Well, it seems Firefox is more permissive to "typing errors". As you can see you have a semicolon in there - IE probably doesn't like it so it ignores the attribute completely, but Firefox doesn't. Each browser, being written by different development teams, behaves differently.
