New feature - Spell checker

Post by Ciaran » Tue Nov 08, 2011 6:31 pm

Hi folks,

I've been doing some updates work to the forum software today and thought I'd try integrating a spellchecker while I was at it.

After some heavy modification of the code, its working - for Internet Explorer at least, I'm still working on getting it to co-operate with Firefox, hopefully it'll be sorted in the next few days.

Anyway, its probably pretty self explanatory, but in case you missed it, its the 'Spell Check' button at the top left of the posting buttons :lol:

Hope its of some use.

Ciarán

Good work Ciaran.

Spell checker is handy,

I use google chrome browser that has a spell checker come in automatically. Pain with it is that it thinks I am a yank. :lol:

How do you get the full editor to open up in replies instead of having to click for it?

Well spotted Rob, it seems the spellchecker has broken the QuickReply function...
I dunno, you fix one thing..... :lol:

Will have a look now :)

Eye halve a spelling chequer

It came with my pea sea

It plainly marques four my revue

Miss steaks eye kin knot sea



Eye strike a key and type a word

And weight four it two say

Weather eye am wrong oar write

It shows me strait a weigh



As soon as a mist ache is maid

It nose bee four two long

And eye can put the error rite

Its rare lea ever wrong



Eye have run this poem threw it

am shore your pleased two no

Its letter perfect awl the weigh

My chequer tolled me sew.
