[release] Progress bar in newreply

Author: filburt1
Description: adds a live progress bar and character counter to newreply to replace the [check message length] link.
Screenshot: next post

Because of speed limitations the progress bar does not update with every keystroke, but rather every two seconds. Also, its color depends on how much you've typed (>80% is red, >60% is yellow, anything else is green).

Requires IE5.5, at least for the live counter. Not sure about the progress bar itself.

Would this work if I put it in newthread as well?

I got the idea from Rent-A-Coder but I wrote the code from scratch

I'm guessing yes just because I don't see why it shouldn't.

I was trying to make something like this too, not a bar but the stupid java wouldn't work! >_<

This will count though, nice work.

Maybe, depends on how the form is coded.
