[ADDON] Spell Checker Can't Post

Hi,

I had a complaint about spelling an hour or so ago, so I have knocked up a quick spell checker - for articles in AM.

Currently this does not seem to work in Opera, and I can't work out why - so if anyone can take this simle mod forward and develop it further, that would be great. It also will only check in a US dictionary :(

Before editing any templates, back them up first - neither I nor IT will be liable if your site crashes, or your mother-in-law comes to stay as a direct result of using this mod ;)

You will need to make this alteration in both /templates/interface/_art_menus.html and /templates/interface/_writer_menus.html

Insert the code just above both the lines <!-- /templatecell : content --> and <!-- /templatecell : content_wysiwyg -->


Code
 <tr> 
<td colspan=2>
<input type="button" name="spellcheck" value="SpellCheck your Article" onclick="window.open('http://www.spellcheck.net/cgi-bin/spell.exe?action=checkpg&amp;string='+escape(content.value), 'message', 'toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=no,width=500,height=520');" class="buttons" />
</td>
</tr>



You may need to alter the colspan bit to fit in with your layout.

As I said before, if anyone can get this working in Opera or other browsers, please do and share the new code below....

Enjoy....

Great addon. Are there any other sites that provide this type of service without the 5000 character limit?

I tried this on 1.4 Am doesn't seem to work. Anyone have an update to this?

I really like Am but they should be a little bit ashamed to not have a some sort of spell checker by this time. I mean this is an ARTICLE MANAGER. The most important part of writing an article is to get the speling write! ;0
