<script language="javascript">
var max = 50;
function count(obj) {
 cur_new = max - document.getElementById(obj).value.length;
 document.getElementById('counter').innerHTML = cur_new;
 return true;
}
</script>

 

Just add the textbox and span/div element.

<textarea onkeypress="javascript:count(this.id)" id="co_txt"></textarea>
<span id="counter">50</span>
