Thanks AL.. I know a few sites that have been asking me about this.

Install directions say:

"====Open public_Edit_post.pl"

twice.

Are these the only files necessary for modification or is the double request a typo for another file?

public_new_reply_form.pl
public_new_topic_form.pl
Public_Edit_post.pl

Nice work AL. Is this the same as the Spellcheck version ya posted at UBBDesign?

thanks for the heads up lemme fix that

zip updated, the 2nd public_edit_post was supose to be public_pm_form how did i do that? ;/

AL you need to also find the same in public_edit_post,pl as well. There should be four files edited

public_new_reply_form.pl
public_new_topic_form.pl
public_edit_post.pl
public_pm_form

thoese four files are the ones doced

Correct above they were talking about only 3 files I promptly listed the correct four

Instructions to include wordlets would finish this one out.... hint hint hint

$vars_wordlets_mods{spell_check}

spell_check => q~Spell Check~,

ok AA ;P, ill update the doc tomorrow, its sleepy time and testing starts tomorrow

updated zip, wordlets added, cleaned up the doc alot to make it easyer to read.

You might want to add a

at the very end of the code as this will seperate the "Check Spelling" line & the HTML is enabled/disabled lines.

Now if this is XHTML compliant would the command be
?

Also need a way to display instructions. Maybe make that a wordlet so it can easily be changed/modified and some how integrate a link. Mostly just to tell the users they need to cut and paste the corrected post/corrections in to their respective post.

Anyone else notice that the spell check does not keep any paragraph breaks that were included in the original post?

your right, hmmm mabey this one will go to beta again, ill work on something this week

AA as added this to the database thanks

This doesn't seem to work on IIS servers, the href="#" is a no-go.

I know that it's supposed to ignore that and do the on-click but instead IIS attempts to go to the href and gives errors. Without IIS compliance I don't think this should be a finished hack.

I think I said it in the other thread, this hack has NOTHING to do with the servers... Also my board is using IIS, and it works just fine... What's your URL (+ test username/password to try to post, unless "post without login" is on)?

It doesn't work on Netscape browser (communicator 4.77).

Okay, I installed it on my production server and it still doesn't work. It's on the .org site in my sig and the guest account is;

username: MyStyle
password: mystyle

I made that account so people could test the MyStyle hack.

XPerT, it's because you're using XHTML compatible hack...

Replace "REPLIER" with "replier".

Damn, thanks...

Edit: Yep, that did it...

Greetings.
I installed this hack in the site, and so far I love it, I only have a minor problem, when I do the spell check, the script shows me the mispelled words, but it will not apply the corrections, is that the way it is supposed to be?.
I've been doing a manual correction so far. By the way I'm so glad with it that I don't mind if there was no correction to the problem, but my members might need it.
You guys are truly great!

The link to download this hack seems to be broken. Does anybody have another url to get this from?
