    1 i`m sorry for this to much requests i just noticed
    the word counter at solved topic
    https://help.forumotion.com/t131746-problem-in-add-a-word-counter-to-the-editor
    dose recognize space and the new line (Enter)
    the orginal code that dose not recognize arabic letters
    id dose not count the spaces or the new lines
    so if that possible and i say if it possible to make it never count spaces
    this will be really great if only possible
    and last thing sorry for being request many requests

    Hello,

    Replace the script by :
    Code:
    $(function(){$(function(){

               var MinNumberOfChars = 50;
               var ico_compl = "http://i73.servimg.com/u/f73/18/10/89/49/ok-gre10.png";
               var ico_incompl = "http://i73.servimg.com/u/f73/18/10/89/49/exclam10.png";  
          
           if($("#text_editor_textarea").length != 0){
                  $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", true).css("opacity", "0.5");      
                  $(".sceditor-container").after("<br/><div id='div_minchars' align='center'><div id='div_minchars_header'> Minimum characters to send a message: " + MinNumberOfChars + " </div><div id='div_minchars_info'></div></div>");
                  
                  var sceditor = $("#text_editor_textarea").sceditor("instance");                  
                  var str = sceditor.val().replace(/ |\n/g,'');
                  var str_len = str.length;
                  
                  if(str_len >= MinNumberOfChars) $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", false).css("opacity", "1");
                  
                  sceditor.keyUp(function(e) {
                     str = sceditor.val().replace(/ |\n/g,'');
                     str_len = str.length;
                     if(str_len >= MinNumberOfChars) {
                        $("#div_minchars_info").html("You've written <span style='color:green'>" + str_len + "</span> character(s). You can now send the message <img src='" + ico_compl  + "' />");  
                    $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", false).css("opacity", "1");

    will i guess its not possible
    look at the image
    something not right i just noticed about word counter Image
    the word is only 5 letters and the counter is counted 22 letters if i press space it will cont one more letter
    if that`s hard to do it
    then its will be no problem i will just change the 50 to any other rate i guess i don`t like to be burden to others

    Try this :

    $(function(){$(function(){

               var MinNumberOfChars = 50;
               var ico_compl = "http://i73.servimg.com/u/f73/18/10/89/49/ok-gre10.png";

                  var str = sceditor.val().replace(/ |\n|\s+/g,'');
                  var str_len = str.length;
                  
                  if(str_len >= MinNumberOfChars) $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", false).css("opacity", "1");
                  
                  sceditor.keyUp(function(e) {
                     str = sceditor.val().replace(/ |\n|\s+/g,'');
                     str_len = str.length;
                     if(str_len >= MinNumberOfChars) {
                        $("#div_minchars_info").html("You've written <span style='color:green'>" + str_len + "</span> character(s). You can now send the message <img src='" + ico_compl  + "' />");  
                    $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", false).css("opacity", "1");
                     }else{
                        $("#div_minchars_info").html("You've written <span style='color:red'>" + str_len + "</span> character(s). You need " + (MinNumberOfChars - str_len) + " character(s) to send this message <img src='" + ico_incompl  + "' />");
                        $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", true).css("opacity", "0.5");
                     }
                  });
               }
            })});

    If that does not work, could you provide me a message that has that spacing ?

    okay here is some thing


    text wrote:                
    17 spaces hould be in the uper line
    جملة بالاحرف العربية

    the WYSIWIG mode is on
    when i tried with out WYSIWIG its never count the spaces
    and the WYSIWIG mode is needed to be on so if that possible
    then i`m counting on you :Dif you don`t mind
    one thing the 3rd just arabic letters
    new add
    i find out the problem its when i use bold or center if i didn`t use it it works fine
    so i think the code must not count [b] and [b/] and [senter] and [center/] and should works fine Very Happy

    Oh you don't want the tags to be counted ? This should do it :
    Code:
    $(function(){$(function(){

               var MinNumberOfChars = 50;
               var ico_compl = "http://i73.servimg.com/u/f73/18/10/89/49/ok-gre10.png";
               var ico_incompl = "http://i73.servimg.com/u/f73/18/10/89/49/exclam10.png";  
          
          if($("#text_editor_textarea").length != 0){
                  $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", true).css("opacity", "0.5");      
                  $(".sceditor-container").after("<br/><div id='div_minchars' align='center'><div id='div_minchars_header'> Minimum characters to send a message: " + MinNumberOfChars + " </div><div id='div_minchars_info'></div></div>");
                  
                  var sceditor = $("#text_editor_textarea").sceditor("instance");                  
                  var str = sceditor.val().replace(/ |\n|\s+|\[.*?\]|\[\/.*?\]/g,'');
                  var str_len = str.length;
                  
                  if(str_len >= MinNumberOfChars) $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", false).css("opacity", "1");
                  
                  sceditor.keyUp(function(e) {
                     str = sceditor.val().replace(/ |\n|\s+|\[.*?\]|\[\/.*?\]/g,'');
                     str_len = str.length;
                     if(str_len >= MinNumberOfChars) {
                        $("#div_minchars_info").html("You've written <span style='color:green'>" + str_len + "</span> character(s). You can now send the message <img src='" + ico_compl  + "' />");  
                    $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", false).css("opacity", "1");
                     }else{
                        $("#div_minchars_info").html("You've written <span style='color:red'>" + str_len + "</span> character(s). You need " + (MinNumberOfChars - str_len) + " character(s) to send this message <img src='" + ico_incompl  + "' />");
                        $("input[type='submit'][name='post']").attr("disabled", true).css("opacity", "0.5");
                     }
                  });
               }
            })});

    That is most likely why the character count increases.

    You're welcome and don't worry about, the good thing is we figured out what was causing the extra characters. Wink
