If you want to do it for a single question, add this to the question source:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
	$(document).ready(function(){
		$('#question{QID} input[type="text"][id$="other"]').attr('maxlength', 10);
	});
</script>

If you want to do it for all questions in the survey, add this to the end of template.js (this example is for the multiple options question type):

$(document).ready(function(){
	$('.multiple-opt input[type="text"][id$="other"]').attr('maxlength', 10);
});

Cheers,
Tony
