Hi all,

I would like to be able to count the characters typed into the AdvHTML Editor, but as this is DHTML based, the normal scripts don't work. I want to be able to limit the user to a certain amount of characters?

Anyone got any idea's?

Cheers, Craig

When you say "the normal scripts don't work", you mean JavaScript checking the <i>onchange</i> attribute of the textarea by doing a character count?

HI Chris,

Yeah, I have tried various scripts (javascript) to get it to work. I have even tried to copy the text over to another txt box in real time so that I could count that one, but as the text box is DHTML based I'm not able too?

Thanks for the reply, Craig
