The countdown message does not get updated dynamically, either with typing or pasting in text. Would any additional info be helpful with debugging?

For example it would be helpful to know whether you have some javascript errors on your page.

No errors, either on page load or typing in the textarea.

This problem was not fixed for me in the dev release of 9/21/2011.

do you use any WYSIWYG Editor?

somanyfish’s picture

Hi Schnitzel,

First of all… thank you for the great module.
I was wondering if it is possible that the dynamic countdown does not work with wysiwyg editor FCKeditor?

Thx for your feedback.

Hi

Which Versions of Drupal, WYSIWYG and FCKeditor are you using?

And does it work without FCKEditor?
cheers

I'm getting this running the following, looks like it's an issue with the JS

Drupal Ckeditor 7.x-1.6
Drupal's Maxlength 7.x-3.0-beta1 and -dev
CKEDITOR 3.6.2

The error in Firebug's Console reads (it's on line 347 in beta1)

"CKEDITOR is not defined
[Break On This Error]

CKEDITOR.on('instanceReady', function(e) {"

turning off ckeditor module gets rid of the error

eh ignore me, it turned out to be a bad CKEDITOR configuration. Sorry for the false alarm.
