Axton, My idea was that the DVF field would be hidden. It's sole function would be to "fire" events back to the form based on a javascript clock. (So that you can get events every second instead of only every three seconds.) I think that model should prevent the behaviour that Doug Blair was seeing with the unending nesting of Active Links.
Yes you could also use a DVF to display the "Character Field" and the "count field". However, that would require a bit more DVF than want I was trying to suggest would be needed. (And if a View field could actually be used to send events back to the Client then you might not have to really have a DVF at all. Just use Javascript to emit a "count the length now" signal when you want it to. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....

** With the DVF architecture, an interval shouldn't be necessary. You could write the DVP so that a character entry triggers an event. One of the next tasks I have for the DV Plugin Architecture I am writing is some type of generic event handling. http://arswiki.org/projects/dvpfw If anyone wants to contribute to this project, let me know.
