Does anyone have Nathan's email address? I would like to get in touch with him regarding using his script on our forum using aspell or pspell instead of MySQL.

Thanks,
Parker

Yes, you go into the configuration and set the dbtype to pspell. :) Upload the spell_pspell.php file Then you can delete the word table as it will then use your pspell/aspell tables.


Yes, if your apell is a recent version; then the php pspell interface is what is used to call both the older pspell and the newer aspell libraries. If you have a really old verison of apell then it might not work.

Nathan.
P.S. My Email address is in the documentation phpspell@master-technology.com

Anna,

That is basically because I don't actually have a copy of vBulletain. So, I won't have install instructions (or a nice spell_vbulletin.php or .js) until someone wants to work with me and give me some information that I need. :)


Sorry, that it was so hard. Glad you like it. :D

It is very hard to guess at things. :-D If I have access to the code; you would see a nice and easy drag and drop install like phpbb, or invisionboard. Once someone helps me; I hope to have a easy install instructions for vBulletin.

Nathan

Nathan:

Using $Spell_Config["DB_Type"] = "pspell";
returns
"You must choose a Database Type in the Spell Configuration file."

I don't see anything in the config file that calls on the spell_pspell.php file if pspell is what is set as the DB_Type.

Any suggestions?

Parker

Line #33 in the config file is:
You uncomment it.

2nd, in the pspell directory of the last couple versions of my spell checker is the spell_pspell.php file which you upload.

Nathan.

Nathan:

The .zip file that we have here to download does not have that line in it or anyway of telling it when the DB_Type is pspell what to do if it is pspell.

Is there anyway you can email me a copy of phpspell to me?

Thanks,
Parker

Took all of 5 minutes to install, works like a charm.

Great Hack. Thanks.

At the bottom of any of my messages on any of the forums I watch is a link to the latest version of phpspell. :)

Nathan.

Is this what vbportal.com uses for the spell checking?

Have no idea -- they don't seem to have a public forum that I can post on without signing up for a new account. If you click on my link at the bottom of the page and try out the spell checker. (Actually do a spell check to see it in action as the initial page is just a simple form.)

Nathan.
