Hi,
I would use a JQuery plugin/function for this.

Cheers Kai

If you want to do it for a single question, add this to the question source:
Code:
<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):
Code:
$(document).ready(function(){
  $('.multiple-opt input[type="text"][id$="other"]').attr('maxlength', 10);
});

Of course, it would be too much to expect consistency in the IDs :laugh:
Code:
$(document).ready(function(){
  $('.list-dropdown input[type="text"][id^="othertext"]').attr('maxlength', 10);
});
