TextArea CountDown

[shapper]

Hello,

Does anyone knows a good JQuery countdown that displays the number of
remaining characters on a text box?

Thank You,
Miguel

No, but it's pretty easy to write one :)

<textarea></textarea>
<div id="counter"></div>

$('textarea').keyup(function(){
      if(this.value.length >= 100) {
           //handle the over the limit part here
           $(this).addClass('overlimit');
           this.value = this.value.substring(0, 100);
      } else {
          $(this).removeClass('overlimit');
      }
     $('#counter').text(100-this.value.length);
});
