Live (ajax) Spell Checker

very cool mate, i’m sure this will come in quite handy

(puts hand on head and closes eyes, thinking very deeply) Jinsan, you are… english. lol jk man, just saying ‘mate’ sounds funny.

Interesting plugin. Unfortunately, it stripped the “<!–” and the “–>” from “<!–more–>” from my post, which was a tad annoying. Still, a great plugin.

Doesn’t work for me. When I click on “Check Spelling” in your blog zz85 nothing happens. Any ideas?

Windows user with firefox

Very cool. Works for me on FF 1.0.4 on Windows. I like the fact that it highlights the misspelled words and provides alternatives. Very impressive.

*must resist urge to implement every plugin under the sun*..:)

Regards

is there any way to chanche it to other lenguage?

jpgodlew: I’ve no idea… but because I doing changes to my webpage, it could possible its not working.

JuanManuel: Its possible. Under spell_checker.php,
change
$pspell_config = pspell_config_create(“en”);
to
$pspell_config = pspell_config_create(“en_UK”);
for example.

Is anyone working on a gmail like version of spellcheck for wysiwyg such as mudbombs?

Updates.

1. Link to my page has changed to https://www.lab4games.net/zz85/blog/wordpress-plugins/live-spell-checker/
2. Latest version is 0.5

a) some fixes to pspell
b) integration with emil’s spellchecker (check as you type style)

This release would affect how future versions are going to be like.
Do you like the old ajax spell_check method? or the new type? Or still the combination of both?

Let’s see our reactions.

[forgot to add new in 0.5]
port of emil’s cgi spellcheck scripts to php.

I really like this plugin, but is there any way of making the errors show up in a pop-up box, and then when you correct the errors, it automatically gets corrected in the text area

injinuity, that the purpose of ajax spellcheck.. to have the spelling check without a new window. If you want a pop-up box, use coldforge spelling plugin at https://www.coldforged.org/spelling-checker-plugin-for-wordpress/

do i just upload the whole spell_checker folder into my /plugins directory? it is not working for me…

Yeah, doesn’t work for me either. Firstly, won’t work in Safari on 10.3, and in Firefox on OSX it doesn’t catch any misspellings at all.
