This was a great modification that worked flawlessly in 1.6 and no longer works in 1.8.  What lines do I need to edit to make it work with 1.8?

Here is the page with the instructions for the script:  http://rpg-directory.com/archive/index.p...40233.html

for the headerinclude template replace below code segment with <script> and add all other required codes

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
/* based on Hows my post  v2

    jQuery.noConflict();

It still doesn't work.  I am wondering if this section of the code, which goes in the New Thread template, also needs an edit of some kind?

<script type="text/javascript">
(function ($) {
$(function () {
 
var elTextarea      = $('#message_new');
elTextarea.keyup(word_count);
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
