Has anyone managed to get Aspell, spellerpages and CF to work propery on both IE and FF?
After much work modifying the broken-out-the-box spellchecker.cfm file, I managed to get both browser to
display either:
-the unparsed html in the select box (not appropriate as it triggers endless spelling errors flags due to the html markup)
- the parsed html , albeit completely broken as it conflicts with the spellechecker style sheet.
In both case it's completely useless, as nobody would settle for a half-baked spell checker. In the meantime I disabled the spell checker icon in ff and am using iespell on ie (with good success).
So... has anyone managed to get ASpell and CF to work together as intended?
Cheers,
Stephan

RE: spell checker and coldfusion
Ok.. no reply is never a good sign
I'll download the speller pages source from SF tonight and build my own from there... will post my results here.

Re: spell checker and coldfusion
Did you get a reply?
I've installed speller with some challenges and some success...
When I first tried loading it I got the message:
"Element CHECKTEXT is undefined in FORM"
After looking in the form scope I found the text contents I was after was in a strange var called "TEXTINPUTS[]". This is not a form var that can be directly accessed as the syntax is not something that can be evaluated.
I used a UDF that renames struct keys to change the form var to checktext, which is what we're after. (http://cflib.org/udf/StructRenameKey)
During the debugging fest I also checked the aspell software and folders etc. It's now executing and writing to the temp files etc (after I commented out the delete file bit) - so I assume the issue lies with the output of the process.
All that is wrong now (I think) is that I get a JS error:
line 62, this.originalSpellings[...] length is null or not an object
Any ideas or a different solution. Other than not working yet - I was very happy, as this sol does not require the user to install anything.
Please let me know if you have any ideas to resolve this.
Thanks,
Matt
