# Limit title characters WHILE adding new post

 * There are plug-ins/hacks that limit the title of a post AFTER it has been posted.
   But is there a plug-in that actively limits the amount of characters someone 
   can type WHILE in the control panel creating/writin/editing the post in the title
   field?
 * As in, it limits the title before-hand so it never exceeds the limit to begin
   with?
 * Thanks

 * I’m interested on the same functionality. We have a website with a limited space
   for titles and would be very useful to count the characters in the field, Twitter
   alike.
