SCAYT plug-in for CKEdtior

[Artur Formella]

Introduce the new "Spell Check As You Type" (SCAYT) spell checker option, provided by SpellChecker.net.

[Artur Formella]

It is a powerful plugin but there is still a lot to be done. I have marked it in the code (TODO).

Know issues:

• plugin works only on first instance of CKEditor
• options dialog saves changes only once
• dialog files should be joined into one .js file to avoid domains problems.

Despite these problems plugin works.

It it experimental phase, to enable plugin please set CKEDITOR.config.scayt_autoStartup to true.

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

The plugin.js file is missing in the patch.

[Artur Formella]

Changes:

-now it works with many editor instances

-options dialog is in 1 JS file

-scayt is setting to disabled before setting to source mode.

-added "More suggestions" submenu.

-unused commands and menu items are removed

-editor.lang is used

There is one issue in IE when editor is empty.

I have made changes in panelbutton/plugin.js, because I have to set the state of Panel button to ON.

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

Ok... it looks like we're almost there. Good job Artur.

There a few issues and enhancements we could have here:

• The button state is not preserved when going source mode and back.

• It would be nice to have a real menu instead of the custom panel used for the toolbar button.

• The elements path is showing the spellchecker span.

• If possible, we should change "Enable SCAYT" to "Disable SCAYT", it it's enabled, and back to previous label when disabling it.

• The dialog title should be "Spell Check As You Type".

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

Also... unrelated changes have been made to the config.js file with the previous patch.

This feature depends on #3531.

Replying to fredck:

• The elements path is showing the spellchecker span.

What do you think about:

if ( element.getAttribute( '_cke_real_element_type' ) )
	name = element.getAttribute( '_cke_real_element_type' );

else if ( element.getName() == 'span' && element.getAttribute( 'scayt_word' ) )
	name =  editor.lang.scayt.misspelledWord  // = 'misspelled word'
	
else
	name = element.getName();

I'm taking over this ticket, as we need to have it done for the RC.

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

This new patch fixes all the previously mentioned issues, except the element path thing. We can have it fixed with a dedicate ticket later, as it involves generic editor features.

There is still room for improvements in the plugin and dialog scripts. But we can go ahead with it as it is now.

The style for disabled menu items is not correct. This will be handled by a dedicated ticket.

I'm including the coded that fixes #3531 and #3532, because it was difficult to isolate the code related to them from code that is interested to this ticket. So, as soon as we close this one, those other two tickets will get closed also.

[Artur Formella]

When scayt_autoStartup = true the initial state of button is wrong. This is small issue so I will open a new ticket for it.

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

Fixed with [3516].

"preserveState" was introduced with this ticket.
