actionscript 3 - How to create live word counter in AS3 text field? -
i'm going create edit options in flash input text fields: need live word count. how count words user typing live?
try this, count groups of non-whitespace characters:
function countwords(input:string):int { // match collections of non-whitespace characters. return input.match(/[^\s]+/g).length; } some tests:
trace(countwords("")); // 0 trace(countwords("simple test.")); // 2 trace(countwords(" untrimmed string ")); // 5
