Spellchecker Added To All Skins

[Troy Spiral (13)]

Added a spellchecker finally after numerous requests. (every full edit screen has the ubiquitous "ABCcheckmark" box in the next editing toolbar now.)

Damn that was time consuming to add heh. Seems to work pretty good though. Spell check a lot of stuff and let me know if you see any errors. Also has a feature that links out to m-w.com for word definitions and thesaurus.

Looking to add a larger dictionary file once i find one. (current one 'only' has about 90,000 words)

I don't need no steenking spellchecker.

oh... I just learned that "steenking" isn't a word. The spellchecker suggested "stinking."

[BrassFusion]

Hmm. The spell check button seems to have usurped the "Add Reply" button when using fast reply, so fast reply isn't fast anymore, more like it's slower than normal reply because i have to go through "more options" and see the preview.

[BrassFusion]

Oh, and the spell check button under "fast reply" that used to be the "add reply" button doesn't even function as the spellchecker.

[Brenda Starrr]

OMG.....

You mean, I won't have to look at some of the atrocious spelling that occurs?? Why doesn't Tom from myspace do this????? Troy just rocks.

[Troy Spiral (13)]

well that assumes people will actually USE it.

[Homicidalheathen]

Thank you Troy. I do get tired of signing out then looking it up on the internet then signing back in with the right spelling.

You rock for doing all this work for free. When I see ya I am buying you a beer if you want one.

[Brenda Starrr]

well that assumes people will actually USE it.

Okay, let's hope for that.

Okay, let's hope for that.

What??? Then we can't tell how smart they really are....

Then again... people who didn't care enough about spelling to learn it in school probably don't care to correct things now.

Edited to say that it didn't work for the word "test" when I spelled it as shown above.

hrmm worked for me... did you actually click on the "spellcheck" button?

[Troy Spiral (13)]

Oh, and the spell check button under "fast reply" that used to be the "add reply" button doesn't even function as the spellchecker.

This problem is fixed. Wasnt supposed to show up in fast reply. You can click on "more options" under fast reply or just use add reply.

[Brenda Starrr]

It did now. Maybe I thought I clicked on the correct button, but didn't.

Thanks HH. My PM box is usually 80% complaints. Nice to get a compliment occasionally. =)

Oh and that does NOT mean i dont like complaints... feel free to complain, if i dont know somethings wrong i cant fix it. (but private complaints usually work much better than public ones)

Cant be having incorrectly spelt obscenities.

see, my keyboard sticks, I type in an unorthodox style which in effect presents itself as typographic dislexia, and I'm lazy.
