I think this is the wanted behaviour and the component doesn`t trigger
on keypress events.

In this case its onblur.

If you want to achieve the "realtime" stuff, it shouldn`t  be that
difficult to do it by hand. Just enable the onkeypress attribute and
write the length of the value to the destination element by plain js.

Don`t forget to use forceId of the dest element in order to get only
the id without the prefixes.

cheers,

Gerald

Thx works - IE doesnt matter if it works or not.

But still there is the issue - it updates not on demand, i have to focus
another component for update, is this a wanted behaviour or an issue?
