When LiveCycle ES4 renders a form in pdf, "xfa.event.newText" works fine. It does not work for an HTML rendered form. Is there a different javascript model/properties for a rendered HTML form ?
If there a complete list somewhere of the differences in javascript for a rendered pdf form versus a rendered HTML form?
This question was asked in July, 2013 but never answered. I am trying to get a character count while user is entering text in a text field. I have a FormCalc function but cannot get it to work in JavaScript.
Please help.

Hi,
I made a google search and found this in the LiveCycle help.
Adobe LiveCycle ES4 * Object-Level Scripting Support
So, xfa.event.newText method is not supported in HTML.

Actually, I learned through trial and error that the change event does in fact fire on a text box and xfa.event.newText also works in HTML5 as long as "Allow Multiple Lines" is not checked in the text field object properties. I do have to allow multiple lines so I am still looking for an acceptable solution to this problem.
