  oh, one more thing i forgot. you can also change the text on the template so as to reflect the new number of allowed column selections. i have not actually tried that yet but should be a very simple smarty tpl or language file change.
  
  if anybody finds that please post location of file. thanks

  files affected
  modules/home/homestuff.js
  
  in function frmvalidate() find this snippet change cnt from 2 to 8 and change the text in the alert to whatever is appropriate.
  
  if(cnt>8){
  alert("please select only 8 fields");
  selval.focus();
  return false;
  }else{
  document.homestuff.fldname.value=fieldval;
  }

  
  
  i made these changes in v.5.2.1 and it works great! thank you! the other files i changed in addition to your code change are:
  
  for changing the text to show the new number of fields you can select: fields to show (select any two)
  file location:
  modules/home/language/en_us.lang.php
  
  around line 74
  'lbl_home_fields'=>'fields to show <br>(select any two)'
  change 'two' to the number of fields you want.
  
  
  in v5.2.1, the code: alert("please select only 2 fields"); reads as: alert(alert_arr.lbl_select_only_fields);
  in v.5.2.1, for changing the alert that shows when too many fields are selected: alert(alert_arr.lbl_select_only_fields)
  file location:
  include/js/en_us.lang.js
  
  around line 303
  'lbl_select_only_fields': 'please select only two fields.'
  change 'two' to the number of fields you want
