I thought it would be a better idea to have the spelling checker inline with the browser window. Sorta like the 'tip of the day' in IE under the help menu. I'm sure this is possible using javascript, right? I dunno, but I kinda hate popup windows. Maybe make it a preference setting.

My server is doing all the backend work and heavy lifting of processing every spell check, so you need to connect to my server. This really only works through the whole popup method. Most people probably can't/won't install the backend stuff anyway since it is a bit daunting and involves quite a bit of Unix configuration (assuming they even have a unix box!). By using my server, install is VERY easy and many people are likely to use it. -Nuttzy Back to top dhn Joined: 25 May 2004 Posts: 6 Posted: Thu May 27, 2004 10:52 am    Post subject: A XUL implementation for Gecko browsers would rock. But then this is going to far for too small an audience.

But it doesn't work with the google popup blocker, you will have to hold ctrl And with opera you can't have block all popups on or it will block it (duh) _________________ Back to top ZoliveR Joined: 27 May 2004 Posts: 80 Posted: Mon May 31, 2004 4:00 am    Post subject: Use Firefox! It's a great browser about popup blocking _________________ I'm the belgian chocolate eater Back to top mfs9 Joined: 27 May 2004 Posts: 33 Posted: Mon May 31, 2004 4:35 am    Post subject: I think it is a great way how you have it set up. Makes it easy for people to install, and any changes you make, everyone will automatically be updated. A very genious idea IMHO Back to top nuttzy99 Site Admin Joined: 23 May 2004 Posts: 1068 Posted: Mon May 31, 2004 8:59 pm    Post subject: Why thank you -Nuttzy _________________ <?php echo "something wicked awesome for my sig"; ?> Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         SpellingCow.com Forum Index -> Suggestions All times are GMT - 5 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum General----------------AnnouncementsSay HelloGeneral DiscussionTesting As-you-type----------------Support The old POPUP version----------------Install TroublesThe War RoomSuccess StoriesSuggestionsBug TrackerDictionary Additions  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2002 phpBB Group :: Spelling by SpellingCow.
