char counter

[ganySA]

I have tried to get the below to work but the counter doesnt seem to work...

{{> paper_char_counter_link}}

<paper-input-decorator>
    <input id="input1" is="core-input" maxlength="5">
    <paper-char-counter class="footer" target="input1"></paper-char-counter>
</paper-input-decorator>

paper_char_counter_link doesnt seem to be a valid template. without it paper-char-counter doesnt do anything... any ideas
