AUI Column settings

Regular Member Posts: 105 Join Date: 2/2/18 Recent Posts

I want to change the default maxlength attribute in the following

<aui:column><aui:input name="TIN"/></aui:column>

I tried to set the "max" attribute like so

<aui:column><aui:input name="TIN" max="10"/></aui:column>

But it's still at the default 75 characters and the HTML looks like this when I inspect it

<input class="field lfr-input-text" id="_compasspracticeprofile_WAR_compasspracticesportlet_TIN" name="_compasspracticeprofile_WAR_compasspracticesportlet_TIN" style="max-width: 350px; " type="text" value="XXXXXXXXX" maxlength="75">

I need to limit this field to 10 characters since our database can't handle anything greater than 10. Seems like there would be a simple solution here but I've been fighting with it for the last hour.. The aui stuff so clearly documented.....

Hi Kevin, I think it's just a typo. You have this (according to your post)

<aui:column><aui:input name="TIN" max="10" /></aui:column>

But looking through the Liferay source code, I can see that when they are using it, the use the maxLength attribute, not max. Like so.
