Web authors should never be forced to spell-check outside visitors' entries; that's a user-agent issue. And at least one such user agent exists: <http://www.iespell.com/> >ieSpell is a free Internet Explorer browser extension that spell >checks text input boxes on a webpage. It should come in particularly >handy for users who do a lot of web-based text entry (e.g. web >mails, forums, blogs, diaries). Even if your web application already >includes spell checking functionality, you might still want to >install this utility because it is definitely much faster than a >server-side solution. Plus you get to store and use your personal >word list across all your applications, instead of maintaining >separate ones on each application. -- Joe Clark | joeclark@joeclark.org Accessibility <http://joeclark.org/access/> Author, _Building Accessible Websites_ <http://joeclark.org/book/>Received on Saturday, 23 August 2003 00:35:38 GMT
