I've searched and searched but can't find a plugin or code to add a word counter to an FCKeditor instance. Is it impossible and that's why no one has done it, or am I just blind? If anyone knows how to do this, or can create a plugin for me, I'm willing to pay. Basically I'd like to add a little box somewhere showing how many words the user has typed (basically just ignore all HTML and then count the number of spaces in the text??)

Re: Need a word counter - will pay!
There are some plugins to count the chars (not sure about words) in http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?limit=1 ... &limitz=10
It shouldn't be hard to modify one of them to count words, although I can't understand why do you want that. Such a counter needs to do the count constantly, the performance will be degraded due to to it's presence.
