I get the feeling that I am missing something, but when I simply put a RadEditor control on a page (along with a ScriptManager), the character and word count only updates VERY sporadically. I do notice that if I incorporate RadSpell and perform a spell check, the counts update.
Isn't the count supposed to update as you type? What am I doing wrong here?
Many, many thanks.
Update: Ah, I see in the documentation: "Please note that you have to click with the mouse inside the content area for the statistics module to update, i.e. it will not update on every keystroke for the purposes of performance optimization."
Hmmm...any way to set up a js timer or something to perform an update every few seconds?

Hi Richard,
Indeed, the RadEditor's Statistics module is updatable on Enter key press or click to not decrease performance. Nevertheless, you can easily implement a custom Statistics module which will be updated on key up. For your convenience I have attached such an example which you can test and use in your project.
