the xinha html editor has a spell checker plugin. it looks pretty nice, and in general, the xinha editor is one of the nicest looking wysiwg editors out there, although it is fairy heavy weight.

here's an example of the spell checker plugin:

(you need to scroll to the bottom of the left pane, and enable the spell checker plugin).

When implementing entry summary/content, I left the spell-checker in place, but only for entry text/content as before. I didn't do the extra work to enable spell-checking of entry summary. I must admit. I've never been really happy with the spell-checker and I wonder:

Does anybody actually use the Roller spell-checker?

There are some problems with it:
- The dictionary is tiny
- The Jazzy component is LGPL licensed
- The user interface is unpleasant
- All HTML elements are marked as misspellings

Personally, I'd like to drop it entirely and (at an unspecified future time) seek an alternative.

Any thoughts on the spell checker?
Any suggestions for an alternative?
