display instantly the length of the text entered in the rich text editor

Khadija KhalfallahApr 25 2013 — edited Apr 25 2013
Hi everybody,

I'm developing an apex application with apex 4.1.1 and Oracle 11.2.

I have a page in which I have a form that allows to create a new message on the database.

A message has a title, description, text and date.

For the text I use the item "rich editor text". The problem is that item doesn't show the length of characters entered (character counter for the textarea). In the database the corresponding column is varchar2(2000). What I do is a validation after submit that checks if the limit 2000 was exceeded or not.

But what I want to do more is to display instantly the length of the text entered in the editor. I have tried to do that through a dynamic action. But the event "onChange" for the item "rich text editor" didn't work.

Has anyone any idea about that issue?

Thanks for helping.

Kind regards,
