RichFaces 4.2 “edit” component missing “onkeyup” event ?

[sanyika]

	I have to check the String length in a RichFaces 4.2 editor component on client side. The editor component does not have any "onkeyup" event, so I don't know, how to start the JavaScript function each time, when pressing a key. Thank you for any client-side solution.

The RichFaces editor is based on the CKEditor.  Have a look at a javascript solution for listening to ckeditor events.  For instance:

You can file a jira feature request asking for this event to be exposed by the facelet API, but in the mean time writing your own javascript listener should meet your use case.
