SpellChecker

Something that I'm often asked about and have never seen in a forum is a spell checker.
If anyone has any plans on developing one, I would be interested to hear about it.

There are several good ones out that you can use, however they are not free. In my development efforts I have always used the Java ones since they are pretty platform independent.

Learning how to spell is good! ...... Joking! Laughing

I have ieSpell it's cool! Now if I could get my users to download it everything would be great. .... Rolling Eyes

The only problem, as I said earlier, is that it is IE only. There are many who do not use IE so the Java solution would be your best choice if that is a concern. But as you say, leading a horse to water is only PART of the solution Smile

Thanks for the feedback everyone.
I think a java based spell checker will probably suit my needs better and I'll ceratainly have at look at whats on offer and do some comparisons, particularly in respect of cpu loading etc.
