Hi Ken! Give the following code a try:

$(document).ready(function(){
function limits(obj, limit){
var text = $(obj).val();
var length = text.length;
if(length > limit){
$(obj).val(text.substr(0,limit));
$(“span.out-max”).html(“Invalid length for field value”);
$(this).addClass(‘text-danger’);
}
}
$(‘textarea’).keyup(function(){
limits($(this), 20);
})
})

Hi Marina, it looks like some characters in our code weren’t rendering correctly. I’ve updated the code block, so you should have better luck next time around!
