Improved spellerPages

[Harry]

I've made some modifications to the speller pages script that I thought might be useful and worth sharing.

Changed files are attached

• By setting FCKConfig.SpellerPagesAddButton to true, the speller pages will include an 'add' (to dictionary) button. Without this setting it's entirely backwards compatible. With it enabled, any words that are added are posted back to the server through the spell checking script with a parameter set to enable it to detect that words need to be added to the dictionary, rather than to do a spell check.

• The spellchecker.pl script has been modified and has placeholder functions for adding/retrieving words from the dictionary according to the server setup.

• The control window has been improved to enable/disable buttons when appropriate.

• The OK button is enabled on the outer spellchecking dialog when appropriate. This means you don't have to spell check an entire document and can finish half-way through to apply changes.

• The word window has been fixed so as not to try to find mispelled words within HTML tags (see also bugs #2470 #2326 #2158 which also mention this but it still doesn't seem to have been fixed)

I'm not familiar with PHP or CFM but I'm sure it would be straightforward for someone who is to make similar changes in those scripts.

changed files from FCK2.6.4 for improved spellerPages

I've attached a patch file after applying the changes to a checkout from ​http://svn.fckeditor.net/FCKeditor/tags/2.6.4

I'm not sure if you want a patch from a checkout from the trunk? But I'm suggesting that before this would be ready to go on the trunk that some equivalent changes to those made in editor/dialog/fck_spellerpages/spellerpages/server-scripts/spellchecker.pl be also made to the .php and .cfm scripts. Perhaps this needs to go in a branch - not sure how you want to work with this, but I do think it would be a useful enhancement. Let me know if I can help further.

patch file for diffs from ​http://svn.fckeditor.net/FCKeditor/tags/2.6.4

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

Thanks for the patch. The review instead must be asked for one of our core devs. I'm properly setting the ticket fields.

It is not SpellChecker.net related bug - doesn't relate to wsc or scayt plug-ins.

harrytheb2, I applied your changes, but I didn't see the ADD button, so I edited the fck_spellerpages.html file by changing 'undefined' to 'true'. Here's the line:

oSpeller.bUseAddButton = (typeof oEditor.FCKConfig.SpellerPagesAddButton != 'true' && oEditor.FCKConfig.SpellerPagesAddButton) ? true : false;

That didn't work, so I starting digging and then I changed a line in the controls.html file to:

<input class="buttonDefault" type="button" id="btnAdd" fckLang="DlgSpellBtnAdd" value="Add" onClick="addWord();" disabled>

Now what happens is that when you click the spell check button, you see the ADD button and then it quickly disappears.

Am I editing the correct files?

Thanks!

FCKeditor was retired and is no longer supported. All active development was moved to its successor, ​CKEditor 3.x, that is a fully mature and far superior product. We recommend you upgrade as soon as possible.
