title: jquery SMS character calculator with 7-bit and 16bit
body: <p>I have a text field to type sms message both in english and chinese language. As I have searched, 1 sms can only have 1120 bits. Each english character is 7 bit so it can be 1120/7 = 160 characters and for chinese each character is 16 bits so that is 1120/16 = 70 characters. I need to use jquery to show the words written and words remaining under the text field. how do i do this? </p>
