but it doesn't really matter if it 'pops-under' since it doesn't offer corrections/suggestion, and recognizes correctly spelled words as incorrectly spelled/needed to be learned... In fact every word in this post would come up as needing correcting.

This is not the case if you import the ALT.zip into the database. Other then the pop-up behind - this is working perfectly on my board.

I can say that I get the same problems on 3.6.1 and on 3.6.2 as I had these problems before 3.6.2 came out.
Now as for whether this is caused by the javascript...? I have also compared the files of vbspell.js, vbspell.php and vbspell_iframe.php between the old and the current versions. Mostly the only changes are very minor, such as changing the name “vBSpell” to “vB Spell”. However, there are a few key changes which might be interesting.

10.2b:

function openSpellWin(wx, hx) {

        window.open("", "spellWindow", 'toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width='+wx+',height='+hx);
        window.focus;

}

9.12:

function openSpellWin(width, height) {

        window.open("", "spellWindow", 'toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width='+width+',height='+height+'\'');
}

Looks like some minor changes with height and width changing to wx and hx. Does this make a difference?

Well, I decided to test the theory by simply renaming the 3 (current veriosn) files on my server and then simply copying the 3 files of the old version (vbspell.js, vbspell.php and vbspell_iframe.php) in their place. What happened? Absolutely nothing! No difference. I still get the pop-up happening behind the edit window, not in front. It seems to me that the idea of looking at the javascript may be a dead end.

I really have no idea, but I’d have to theorise that something has changed in 3.6.x to make this happen. I’d guess this could be something along the lines of code compliance and how browsers interpret this. For example, maybe the doc type has changed (it is currently “XHTML 1.0 Transitional”)… actually, bad example, I just checked and 3.0.x is also XHTML 1.0 Transitional.

So, I have not brought any new useful information to this thread, but I can tell you this:

1. I have written to the author asking for them to have a quick check in here as although they are regularly in the forum, they have not been here for a while. It’s not fair to nag or judge the author of free software for a lack of support, but I wanted to know if they had finished with it and would be happy with someone else to pick up and run with it. Unfortunately, they have neither replied, nor posted in here.
2. It would seem on the surface that the javascript is not at fault, as the old version which used to work does not work in here.
3. I have not yet looked into the product.xml. I think that this is where it will have to be. (If no one else can solve this before I do)

Many thanks for your attempts to fix this.

Much appreciated!!
