Check Max Length

[Mike Moore]

Is there a asp.net validator control that validates the length of the text
being entered or does everyone just write jscript for this?

There's not one out of the box, but you could create your own, either as
an independent, compiled, custom server control, or by using a
CustomValidator [http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/073102-1.aspx].

FYI, I created such a control you can use, see:

Also, you could use a RegularExpressionValidator, as Peter Blum
discusses in this post - http://tinyurl.com/7xyht
