I rewrote this a couple months ago and never got around to releasing it, but I just finished putting the spell checker site back up, so I figured now would be as good a time as any. It’s the new version 3.0!! I’ve completely rewritten the Javascript with Mootools 1. and a good portion of the PHP backend. But it’s faster and more awesome now than ever before.

how exactly is the “add to dictionary” link implemented, because i just added all the misspelled words in your example to it?

It just adds the word to a text file of words that are considered correct outside of the actual pspell dictionary. The pspell library allows for the use of a custom dictionary that it’ll also check against. It’s not usually something you’d want regular every day people to be adding stuff to probably.

Doesn’t work in IE 6 or 7 for me (using the index.html page supplied with the scripts). Textarea blanks and an error is thrown up …

Tried on 2 PC’s. 1 PC is XP Service Pack 1 (don’t ask) and the other XP Pro SP2.
Works fine in Firefox 2.00.15 & 2.008 and Opera 9.23 & 9.5 on those same PC’s
