why-not

Hi

I am looking for developers that would like to help me finish my project that I will be releasing to the VB community! This is designed for people running VB under 'windows'. Why "windows" only, becuse it is a PHP extension that I wrote for windows to run via an ISAPI PHP wrapper for windows only! Also Unix and Linux have Aspell, Ispell, Pspell. While windows can use Aspell and Pspell, they both are not very well suited for windows + dictionaries are very large for Aspell, Ispell and Pspell ( 15 languages 7 million + words, 279MB)!
My PHP extension is loaded at server start, ( 23 languages 14,456,238 words, 11MB).

What I am looking for... ( Admin Panel Help... User Interface is done )

I am needing help to write the Admin Panel, that will allow the Administrator to control different options for the Spelling Server...

1. user allowed personal dictionaries ( 1 for each language) (yes/no)
2. add (word or words -> list) to all users personal dictionaries
3. remove (word or words -> list) to all users personal dictionaries
4. option to ( load or reload ) certain dictionaries
5. option to ( add or remove ) words from the main dictionaries
6. option to add, update or change language related variables!
7. option to load the spell checking only on certain forms!
8. option to use different spell checking templates on each form!
9. option to change config options via a form ( configure defaults )
10. option to select different special dictionaries to use per forum ( law, medical... )

If you interested in coauthoring this with me please send me a PM to discuss this..

If you want to see what I am talking about, I have changed my DNS to point to my laptop where I have VB installed with the spell checker...

You can try it without registering, but it will not save your options between sessions. To try it as a registered user use this login...

its a great spell checker however question on a lot of peoples lips will be
does it work with the wyziwyg editor

EDIT , works with it but doesn't hide the html tags in wyziwyg mode

why-not

Hi

That is a 'USER OPTION'! The reason why, is that sometimes you might have a programming forum and the person posting might need to spell check their 'HTML, PHP, JS' code. So the option is turned 'OFF or ON' via the options page! I think someone may have changed the options before or when you tried it....

To test it, log with the test account and post some code via wyziwyg editor, if the 'HTML' code shows, then click on 'OPTIONS' button, in the top 'MULTI SELECT BOX' on the options page, select 'APPLY DEFAULTS' and click on 'UPDATE OPTIONS' at the bottom of the window!

The spell checker is more than simple spell checker, it can 'auto correct' common word errors, like....

poeple
litttle
accross
acheive
acheived
acheivement
acheiving
achievment

The auto correct dictionaries contain thousands of common misspelled words! It also has a web dictionary with over a million terms + law and medical words for each language!

Type 'fraNce', it will ask if you want to change it to 'france', because the second version is 'semi correct and not the first! Then it will auto correct 'france -> France', because grammer correction is a default option, and France is the proper way to write it's name. This is called a conditionals change because you will be asked if you want to make the change, because you can spell it both ways it will not auto change the word. It will also learn by how you type, what it should use for suggestions when it encounters a word error is based on your style of typing!

F!

Did this ever become reality?
