I implmented SpelChek on my forum without an issue (vB 3.0.1). I followed all the steps without issue. The only modification I did was to use class="button" in place of the style stuff (font color, etc) that is provided in Code Snippet #2. Also, the HTML page that you create to generate the two code snippets doesn't work under Opera 7.5b1.

I just did this so it's fresh in my mind - if anyone has any questions after trying it, please let me know.

I don't consider remote plugin services like SpelChek a viable integration option and bet I'm not alone. Seen too many of them come and go and don't want the extraneous garbage they tend to inject into feeds to get everyone to buy something else from them. This is their right, of course, as a free plugin service, but I'm not using it. And even if they don't do this, soon as their server or its corresponding network inevitably hangs you no longer have a functional spellchecker on your board, at least for awhile.

VB needs full integration with a locally installed spellchecker. In fact, it kinda blows my mind VB3 doesn't have this already.

btw, didn't mean to sound too harsh or like I was trying to slap down your idea. I've seen SpelChek mentioned elsewhere on this board and obviously think we need a better alternative. If you like it then by all means, I'm not trying to detour you. Most of us want a better option.

I know our community would benefit from having a spell cheking tool. I'd even pay a monthly fee if I had to. Are there any easy to integrate spell hcekers out there? lol... I had to do that...

I just installed IEspell and it works fine with both the quick reply and WYSIWYG. Thanks for the recommendation....

We really need to look into this. From what I can see by reviewing the numerous replies and discussions, is VB3's WYSIWYG editor is the primary bottleneck. All I know is, this is a perpetually recurring topic. Whomever manages to figure it out is destined for fame and fortune

.

An obvious solution might be for a few of us to pitch in and buy one of these guys a VB license. Right now they simply won't code for VB because they're forced to do it blindly.

Come and get it

Tamarian, you da MAN!

It's quite nice. The next step would be for someone to do the WYSIWYG mode in the WYSIWYG area directly, like HTMLArea does with the spell check plugin:

Now that's cool!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
