Maxlength is a dead simple jQuery plugin that uses Bootstrap styles and HTML5 maxlength attribute to limit the amount of characters permitted in an input field.

How to use it:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="bootstrap.min.css">

2. Include jQuery library and the jQuery Maxlength plugin at the bottom of the webpage.

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

3. Uses maxlength attribute to specify the maximum number of characters allowed in your input element.

<input type="text" maxlength="20" class="form-control">

4. Initialize the plugin on the input element and we're done.

$("input[maxlength]").maxlength();
