NAME

Form::Sensible::Field::LongText - Field for representing large amounts of character-string data.

SYNOPSIS

    use Form::Sensible::Field::LongText;
    
    my $textfield = Form::Sensible::Field::LongText->new(
                                                    name => 'username',
                                                    maximum_length => 16,
                                                    should_truncate => 0
                                                  );

DESCRIPTION

Form::Sensible::Field subclass for representing large amounts of character-string based data. It has all the same attributes and behaviors as Text, only is intended for larger amounts of text. It is separate from Text fields only because arger-blocks of text will likely require additional formatting and processing options.

ATTRIBUTES

'maximum_length'

The maximum length this text field should accept. Note that any size of string can be placed in the field, it will simply fail validation if it is too large. Defaults to 51200. Alternately if should_truncate is true, the value will be truncated when it is set. (should_truncate is false by default. )
