[Done 1.3.9] Text Area - text gets cleared when max characters is reached

[vagrantweb]

I have a text input attribute with a character limit of 200. If you type and reach the 200 character max, everything you have written is wiped out.

Is there a fix for this??

Well isn't that somethin' ...

Moving this to Bug Reports ...

Edit /includes/modules/pages/product_info/jscript_textarea_counter.js

change this:

  if (excesschars > 0) {
		field.value = field.value.substring(0, excesschars);
		alert("Error:\n\n- You are only allowed to enter up to"+maxchars+" characters.");

to this:

  if (excesschars > 0) {
		field.value = field.value.substring(0, maxchars);
		alert("Error:\n\n- You are only allowed to enter up to"+maxchars+" characters.");

Do the same for other product types if needed.
