I wanted to have a character counter on my text questions and found this code:
{strlen(self.NAOK)}
Can someone tell me how to insert this in a question? Does it belong in the source code of the question and must it be enclosed with <script></script> or similar?

Hi, thanks. What do you mean with "You answer with {strlen(self.NAOK)}"? Do I have to put this somewhere in the answer options or does it belong in the source code of the question? When I put it in the latter like this it is just displayed as text in the question...
Thank you very much! However when I put it inside without any "<script></script> or similar it is just shown as text of the question.. Do you have an idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thank you!
You ask questions since some day now, and never tell your LimeSurvey version … for example

Hi the version is Version 3.23.6+ and as in you screenshot the code {strlen(self.NAOK)} is just shown in the text. I don't get how this should count any characters? Thank you again

You need to use the "source" mode. If you just paste it into the WYSIWYG-Editor, then it is displayed as text. On the top left of the editor you see a button "source", click that. It should show all html elements in your question text. If you paste your code in the source mode, it will be interpreted as code, if you put it in the WYSIWYG mode it will be interpreted as normal text.

Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

What is it that you do not understand?
Anybody told you that there is neither any javascript nor css.
In the question text of the SAME question you enter the equation.
And then you see this.
But if you want to show the count in a different question you can't use "self" but the question code.
