            Bug ID: 468484
           Summary: request: spellchecking to be HTML aware
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kate
           Version: 22.12.3
          Platform: Ubuntu
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: k...@richardneill.org
  Target Milestone: ---

When writing an HTML or PHP page, it would be great if the Spellchecker would
check the English language bits, but not complain about the tags and
class-names, and should be entity-aware. 

So for example:
    <h2 >grey&nbsp;elephant</h2>
will flag up "h2" and "nbsp" as wrong words. 
whereas I think it should only check the words "grey" and "elephant".

Incidentally, I saw that bug #321593 is considered too complex to implement,
but perhaps we could at least handle the (relatively) common case of web
programming, and get the low-hanging-fruit, teaching it to ignore   <[^>]+> 
and   &[:alnum:]+;

Thanks :-)
