Hi Nuno,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

After reading your reply.

I search on the net and found out that there are people with this same problem.

and found a solution. 

my next question is how can i insert this code on the outsystems.

Can someone give me a step by step solution.

Sorry i'm a newbie on using the outsystems.

Thank you for your patient with me.

<textarea id="foo" cols="20" var rows="3"></textarea>

$(document).ready(function(){
    var textArea = $('#foo');
    var maxRows = textArea.attr('rows');
    var maxChars = textArea.attr('cols');
    textArea.keypress(function(e){
        var text = textArea.val();
        var lines = text.split('\n');
        if (e.keyCode == 13){
            return lines.length < maxRows;
        }
        else{ //Should check for backspace/del/etc.
            var caret = textArea.get(0).selectionStart;
            console.log(caret);
           
            var line = 0;
            var charCount = 0;
            $.each(lines, function(i,e){
                charCount += e.length;
                if (caret <= charCount){
                    line = i;
                    return false;
                }
                //\n count for 1 char;
                charCount += 1;
            });
                   
            var theLine = lines[line];
            return theLine.length < maxChars;
        }
    });
   
});

Thanks a lot.
