Hi,


I am having a problem on a page where I have a text area that user can only
type in 8000.  I provide a count of each character used as they type so they
know were they are up to.  The problem is that all of a sudden the code is
counting a <space> as 3 characters and a new line as 6 characters.  The
original code worked correctly under CF4.5 but seems like it is not under MX.


Here is the _javascript_ that I use:


function update() {
   var old = document.f.counter.value;
   document.f.counter.value=document.f.box.value.length;
   if(document.f.counter.value > limit && old <= limit) {
     alert('Too much data in the text box!');
     if(document.styleSheets) {
       document.f.counter.style.fontWeight = 'bold';
       document.f.counter.style.color = '#ff0000'; } }
   else if(document.f.counter.value <= limit && old > limit
   && document.styleSheets ) {
       document.f.counter.style.fontWeight = 'normal';
       document.f.counter.style.color = '#000000'; }
   }

Has anyone had this problem before.


Thanks
Mario
