Searching for a (HTML/RTF) component featuring on line spell check

Post by ic2 »

We are searching for a component which features on line spell check. We would like it to show errors red underlined, like in Word, or this NG when we run it from Firefox, and following settings so it can search in a dictionary matching the language. Preferably we should also be able to do a auto correct on a list of 'often made typing errors'.

It should be used in our e-mail program so it should edit HTML but as it should be possible to convert RTF to HTML, a RTF component will do to. The last we saw in HelpnDoc, a Help authoring program which uses on line spelling as well. We asked the programmer and he replied he uses a specific Delphi RTF component to create his HTML help files!

Any info you may have which helps us finding something is welcome.

Hello Tim,

Thanks for the link. However, I will keep looking for other solutions or, preferably, working code samples helping us to write our own code, as the components there costs from $ 1800 - % 7500.

Hi Dick,

The Sentry Spelling Checker I use is for our Vulcan application. That is the US$700 Sentry Spelling Checker Engine Windows SDK. Have used it for a number of years and never had a problem.
That being said, very interested in what else is out there.

Regards,
Tim
