"Googiespell" Spell Check in Forums! (Ajax Driven!)

[ElForro]

I hope you know Googiespell... I've just tried it and ... IT WORKS GREAT!

Well, it's just a script that uses "Google's Spelling Check"... Just three .JS and a CSS and you've got a really nice spell checker...

Well, I'm trying to use it in my forums, but i've a little problem with the WYSIWYG/Code textareas... I mean, the speel checker works right, but then i change the "message view" and it's a mess...

Please, someone? I'm sure that you'll love this, it's just so simple... Try it and tell me if you can make it work!

:banana:

Someone? It really works! Chek it out: http://amix.dk/googiespelldemo/

I would love to use this spell cheker in my forum!

I would love to use this spell cheker in my forum!

It would be a rather huge job to integrate into the vBulletin editor, I doubt many people would feel the effort was worth it.

[ElForro]

Merk, sorry... I just didn't know if it was so difficult...

But my forum are in Spanish... So VBSpell don't work for me... And in this way you could have an updated dictionary from Google in a lot of more languages... and your users could choose...
I thought that it would be a little coding for making it work in both WYSIWYG and Code editors...

Thanks anyway!

I got it to work on mine. It was really simple. Very nice thank you! :banana:

What is the issue you're having with "message view"? The preview? Did you find this page? http://amix.dk/googiespell

The problem is when I switch de "Editor" from WYSIWYG to "code"... I've just see your forum and you've got the same problem... Try checking spelling, and then switch the message view, and you'll se the problem... :(

[hobbes747]

Ahhh! Well yuck.

Ok, I've tried a few things, but since the wysiwyg is an iframe and not really a textarea this might not be the right direction.

The closest I've gotten is by putting

googieDecorateTextarea(this.textobj);

on line 1323 of clientscript/vbulletin_textedit.js, below the lines

// this.editdoc.execCommand('justifyright', false, null);
}
this.spellobj = this.editdoc.body;

this.editdoc.editorid = this.editorid;
this.editwin.editorid = this.editorid;

All it does is pull up another instance of the spell check when wysiwyg it turned on though. Surely something like this would work somewhere in this page...

That or build a js conditional for the

googieDecorateTextarea("vB_Editor_001_textarea");

that would change to

googieDecorateTextarea("vB_Editor_001_iframe");

when wysiwyg is activated with AJAX.

[ElForro]

Mmm, it seems that's not working really well... No one can help a little with this? I'm sure that someone who knows a little bit more of coding can figure this out... And I think that would be a GREAT hack (more than 10+ languages to choose from, Google powered, 100% Ajax, OMG!)

Please! :p

I'm sure someone with the proper skills can make this into a working plug-in.

I have added the .js and stylesheet references into the headerinclude as mentioned in the documentation but don't know what to do to add it to the WYSIWYG editor.

Can someone tell me in clear language what to do to add a spell check button to the correct form and have it access googiespell?

[Abe1]

Just for the info, I started working on this and got it working on the regular editor. I didn't look into why it was not working on WYSIWYG editor yet.

Just wish me luck.

Looks pritty cool though.

I'm having a hard time finding what to do for the WYSIWYS editor. I dont know Javascript. If someone who does has the time to work with me on figuring out the WYSIWYG part, please PM me.

Hi,
have anyone made a plugin for that Mod?

[MrD]

Hi,
can anyone give Instructions to Install this Mod in a vb ?

[Abe1]

Hi,

I started but stopped when FF came out with version2.0

[MrD]

Hi Abe1,
ok, FF has a Spellchecker onboard, but many User using IE ;)

[cyberphr]

Just put a spellchecking button linking to the Firefox download page! :D

[MrD]

Hi Cyberphr, nice Joke :D

[Abe1]

Hi Abe1,

Then use the vb spell checker.

[MrD]

Hi Abe1,
vb spellchecker is not so comfortable.
the language must be edit by hand.
