• Consistent character-limit validation

    I was making a rather long comment (

    needgap.com slash comments slash 1099

    , "Jeff , posted comment on Getting things done at individual level" ).

    When I entered the comment, I saw a warning that looked like:

    "Character limit reached: 1262"

    So, I made some changes to the comment (removing some words) so that the message disappeared.

    However, then when I tried to make this change (in this case I was editing an existing comment, and I pushed "Save"), I encountered a new page telling me that my comment was too long and needed to be < 1250 characters.

    I eventually discovered that to submit this comment required removing more words (you can see the final, submitted version in the link above).

    Is it possible for the "Character limit reached" warning to appear in all of the cases where the comment is too long?

    Thanks!
