This was covered on the list recently. For the whole thread, search
cftextarea: how to count characters
Reprise relevant js:
var oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('theBody');
var theBodyTest = oEditor.GetXHTML(true);
if (theBodyTest.length==0) {
alert('You need to enter something for the body of your story.');
return false;
}
Cheers,
