Spell-check issues

Toby — Mon, 08 Sep 2014 13:07:38 GMT

Hi everybody,

I hope you're having as sunny a Monday as we are in Bucks!

Just as a quick FYI, we've reported an error in the community's spell-check system to Lithium who are investigating as we speak.

When you try to use it, you get an 'Error:0' message.

Have you all seen this too? Or is the spell-checker working for you?

Cheers

Hi @Toby

I mentioned this in my thread over the weekend.... Cleo's thread

There were other changes I noticed as well.... Are they all part of the changes to the message box?

Hi Cleo,

I believe they are linked yes. As I learn more, I'll let you know. If anything changes for anyone though, do let me know here!

Spell check seems to be working OK for me ATM, I am delighted to say. No error messages and it is catching errors extremely well, though not always suggesting a good correction. For example I typed cathcing instead of catching. It found the spelling error, but the correct spelling was not in the list of suggested words. Maybe I expect too much from Lithium?

Hi Gerry,

The plot thickens!

What browser and its version are you using please? Can you try on others to be sure? Thanks

On the strength of @Anonymous 's reply I can indeed confirm that spellcheck works on IE11

Still doesn't work on Chrome or FF...

Sorry for delay replying @Toby - I use IE11 with all available updates and spellchecker continues to work fine. However, in Chrome and Opera the Spellchecker invokes "Spellchecker request error:0" whatever that cryptic message might mean.

@Toby Spellchecker appears to be working again in Chrome and Opera. Internet Explorer 11 continues to work perfectly (apart from the as yet unresolved sign off annoyance).

Have a great day - and thanks to those involved in fixing the spell-check issue.
