You would need to edit the file register.asp and change line 1129:- if (document.frmRegister.signature.value.length > 200){ You may also need to increase the filed sizes in the database if you increase the length of a signature. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

-borg-, I checked my v7.01 database and the signature field was set to Memo (65,535 characters). Is there any other field or table that would affect the signature? Also, for hacking purposes what would you recommend as the max for a signature line (if over 200)? ------------- http://webspacegeeks.com - Need Hosting, Domains, Dedicated Servers? http://www.smartergeek.com - web design | pc support | training | podcasts | video production |

Thank you for answering my question Borg.. 1) If one clicks "Show signature" (on the register page) it still show max 200 characters (did a char count). I am afraid this will confuse a user. 2) When a new user however writes 199 chars, push the send button, an error message will popup, saying one wrote 199 chars, whilst max char is on 200. Of course, if the user only writes 80 chars there is no problem. But I believe this message error also will confuse. |

You will have to look throuh the files for where 200 is stored, it could be in the register page or in the text held in the language file. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
