Spell checker does not work. Can I make it work? Its a pain in the ass copy pasting to textedit for every answer.

Interesting problem, it's something to do with the WYSIWYG editor I think, as on regular fields (like this comment box) the browser's spell checker works fine.

Comment form does not use cckeditor, so the browser spell checker works here. This problem is due to cckeditor, checkout my answer

Your browser's spell checker works when typing in this comment box? Mine dosen't. I have tried all the browsers. I'm running the latest Mac OS. What are you running?

The problem is due to cckeditor. You need to disable default cckeditor spellchecker. and then you will see native browser spell checker.

just add this to cckeditor setting:

config.disableNativeSpellChecker = false;

 

If you are unable to get it work, then you can ask me but before asking try it first. :-)

Hi rahular,

i can't get what you have advised above to work. can you specify the exact file location to edit and where in the file do you put the

config.disableNativeSpellChecker = false;

thanks

This file is named "config.js" and is present in qa-plugin/WYSIWYG-editor/ckeditor/ . However, by default it is set to false. This doesn't solve the problem.
