It probably does but, you just aren't giving it enough time to charge. If you are make sure the remote is actually plugged into the charger. The remote won't turn on because it might still need a charge.
I found that I needed to auto turn off the controller in settings when I turned off the PS3. I also did not realize that they do not recharge while the PS3 system is off and they will lose there power if not turned off.

When you charge your ps3 controller will it still keep the playstation on without turning off?
No you need to set your PS3 to automatically turn off your controllers and if you plan on charging them between uses set the PS3 auto off for long enough to allow the charge and make sure you do not turn the PS3 system off when you quit playing. If you turn the PS3 off it will not charge the controller and then go off. My Sony HDTV has a USB port and I use that to keep the controller charged as any USB port can be used to charge a controller. I also purchased a pair of Sony Controller cables like the original equipment at amazon for only $10 although sometimes the price increases
