Hi,

I use Vim 7.0 (on Mac OS 10.4.9). Spell checking works perfectly,
however, not when editing HTML files. Even after typing ":setlocal spell
spelllang=en_us", I don't get any error marks.

Other files, such as plain text or LaTeX, work perfectly with spell
checking.

Any idea why this could be the case?

Thanks,
Claus


I don't know; when I use ":setl spell spellang=fr" in an HTML file in 15th-century French, all words whose orthography changed since then are highlighted with red curly underline.

However, I notice that the spell checker doesn't understand entities: "où" is highlighted as a misspelling even though "où" is a valid word in modern French.

You have set filetype recognition and syntax highlighting, haven't you?

What's the date of your syntax/html.vim (as shown in one of the comment liunes near the top)? Mine is dated 2006 Jun 19.

Best regards,
Tony.
