Hi EveryoneI am using this code successfully in an essay text box.Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function(){jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").attr("placeholder", "500 character limit.");jQuery("#"+this.questionId+"-RemainingChars").css({"color":"#8c8c8c","font-size":"15px","visibility":"collapse"});jQuery("#"+this.questionId+"-RemainingChars span").css({"visibility":"visible","float":"left"});Which gives this me this.How can I do the exact same but for a form field question with x2 fields? Thanks :)

Hi @parkie_0007,Try below code, it should work for form field.Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { var maxChars = 500; jQuery("#" + this.questionId + " .InputText").attr("placeholder", "500 character limit.").each(function() { var input = jQuery(this), display = jQuery("<div style='font-size:0.8em;'>Characters remaining: <span class='charCount'>" + maxChars + "</span></div>").insertAfter(input); input.on("input", function() { var remainingChars = maxChars - this.value.length; if (remainingChars < 0) { this.value = this.value.substr(0, maxChars); remainingChars = 0; } display.find(".charCount").text(remainingChars); }); });});
