Tiny jQuery Character Limit Plugin For Text Input

Max Char Limit Warning is a super tiny jQuery plugin that displays a custom message to warn users when they are approaching the limit for a text input field.

How to use:

1. Add jQuery JavaScript library and the jQuery Max Char Limit Warning plugin to your webpages.

<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.0.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.maxcharwarning.js"></script>

2. Create an input field and config the max length and warning message using HTML5 data attributes.

<input 
   class ="demo" 
   data-max-length-warning="limit exceeded" 
   data-max-length="10" 
   data-max-length-warning-container="name"
   placeholder="Your name" 
   type="text" 
> 

3. Create a container to place the warning message.

<span class="name"></span>

4. Call the function on the input field. That's it.

$('.demo').maxCharWarning();
