Limiting characters inside HTML paragraph

I want to make it so there's only 350 characters inside the paragraph, regardless of how many characters are put into it, I only want 350 displayed.

How can I do this? The text is just in a div tag in

text.

Cheers

You can also inspect the contents via the DOM in JavaScript if you feel like a client-side solution.

You could put the text into a textbox, style away the fact that it's in a textbox and then limit the length on the textbox using the size attribute.

However, the ideal solution would be to limit it on the server side.
