I am in the process of installing two 18"pocket doors in my closet. I was
wondering if there was a standard method of "stopping them" so they do not
over run from each end and make them stop in the middle when opened?

Some use a stop in the middle of the top jam, others use a stop on the back
side of the door that hits the jam but can be swiveled up and out of the way
with a knife to let the door come out far enough to be removed.
Don't scrimp on cheap hardware or you will fight them forever.
