Check on length string results in translation of tags

Hi,

When I use:

                Field::inst( 'am_templateblocks.content' )
                    ->validator( Validate::maxLen( 4000, ValidateOptions::inst()
                    ->message( 'Dit veld mag maximaal 4000 karakters zijn' ) ) ),

The input of "<section>" results in the unexpected "<section>"

Why is this? Is this a bug, or can it be configered to accept tags?

Same bug in the documentation as your other thread I'm sorry to say. Use:

Field::inst( 'am_templateblocks.content' )
    ->validator( Validate::maxLen( 4000, '.', ValidateOptions::inst()
    ->message( 'Dit veld mag maximaal 4000 karakters zijn' ) ) ),

Are you sure? This results in:

Fatal error:  Call to a member function optional() on a non-object in /mydomainpath/datatables/php/lib/Editor/Validate.php on line 176

You're probably right, but I am probably missing something.

No - I'm completely wrong. I misread maxLen as maxNum - sorry! Your original code was fine, but what threw me was the forum decoding the entities. I've added code marking to your post above so the issue is shown now.

That is being caused by Editor's built in XSS protection - full details of which are here. The manual also shows how you can disable that, so you don't run into that problem.
