Character Count In Textarea

Hi Developer ,

Lets see How to count character In Textarea. It was done by using the .keyup() function in the javascript . When the input in the textarea gets changed the keyup function gets triggered and calculates the amount of character.

Let's Start Coding

Create the HTML file

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Count Characters In Textarea Example - ITSolutionsGuides</title>
    <link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
    <h3 class="text-center" style="margin-bottom: 20px;">Count Characters In Textarea Example - ITSolutionsGuides</h3>
     <div class="col-md-8 col-md-offset-2">
        <textarea name="textarea" id="textarea" maxlength="300" rows="5" style="width: 100%" placeholder="Eneter Text Here..." autofocus></textarea>
        <div id="count">
            <span id="current_count">0</span>
            <span id="maximum_count">/ 300</span>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('textarea').keyup(function() {    
    var characterCount = $(this).val().length,
        current_count = $('#current_count'),
        maximum_count = $('#maximum_count'),
        count = $('#count');    
        current_count.text(characterCount);        
});
</script>
