User Script: del.icio.us notes max length

Posted on January 16th, 2006 5 comments

User Script: del.icio.us notes max length. Don’t you hate it when you type a note on a link in del.icio.us, only to find that it’s been truncated after you click submit? And why are notes only allowed to be 254 characters anyway? Well, this solves one of those problems. Unlike using maxlength to not allow any further input (because I hate that), the script just warns you that need to edit a little before you submit.

    No prob! BTW I updated it to fire onkeyup instead of just repeating on a timer. Dunno what I was thinking there. So, useful enough to list on userscripts.org, you think?

    As Aristotle commented on my thing about this, del.icio.us cuts you off at 255 bytes, not characters.

    Heh. Mediocre minds think alike, I guess. :)
