I have a problem with a word count using the jQuery. The method is working as soon as I click space it will stop.
HTML:
<textarea id="essay_content_area" name="essay_content" onkeydown="words();"></textarea>
<td>Number of words: <div id="othman"></div></td>
jQuery:
function words(content)
{
var f = $("#essay_content_area").val()
$('#othman').load('wordcount.php?content='+f);
}
PHP file:
if(isset($_GET['content']))
{
echo $_GET['content']; // if it works I will send this variable to a function to calculate the words
}
the script shows the content until I click space. any suggestions ?
