[Solved] RadEditor Character Counter Is Wrong

[Brad]

Good evening:

The character counter within RadEditor seems to be counting incorrectly. We've been trying to process a string that the counter reports at 255 characters into a field that accepts 256.  By your indication, it should fit, but in reality, the string we type into the editor is 270 characters.  There are no hidden HTML characters involved, it simply seems to be ignoring punctuation or something else.  Is there a way to tune the counter to accurately report the true length of the string within the "content" area of the editor.  We're using the 3Q2008 build.

Thanks,

Brad

Hello Brad,

Could you please, just for test disable the indentation built-in content-filter filter of RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX and see whether the problem still persists?

Here is how to disable the filter via the codebehind:

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                RadEditor1.DisableFilter(EditorFilters.IndentHTMLContent);
            }
        }
