0 LWSChad Posted December 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 I decided to use TinyMCE again TinyMCE - https://www.tinymce.com/ Using TinyMCE,,, Browser Spellcheck works Rich Text editing on Android works Cut Copy Paste is more powerful Check it out if you need a fully functional Rich Text editor It's Awesome //load tinyMCE tinymce.init({ selector:'textarea#InsertRecordEmailBody', statusbar: false, plugins: "autolink charmap code textcolor contextmenu emoticons fullscreen hr image imagetools link nonbreaking paste spellchecker", toolbar: [ 'fullscreen | undo redo | cut copy paste | alignleft aligncenter alignjustify alignright', 'bold italic underline superscript subscript | forecolor backcolor | fontselect fontsizeselect', 'image link | charmap emoticons | hr nonbreaking | removeformat | code'], menubar: "", contextmenu: "cut copy paste | image link | bold italic underline | hr nonbreaking | spellchecker", default_link_target: "_blank", browser_spellcheck: true, font_formats: 'Arial=arial,helvetica,sans-serif;'+ 'Arial Black=arial black,avant garde;'+ 'Comic Sans MS=comic sans ms,sans-serif;'+ 'Courier New=courier new,courier;'+ 'Georgia=georgia,palatino;'+ 'Impact=impact,chicago;'+ 'Tahoma=tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;'+ 'Times New Roman=times new roman,times;'+ 'Trebuchet MS=trebuchet ms,geneva;'+ 'Ubuntu=Ubuntu,verdana,sans-serif;'+ 'Verdana=verdana,geneva;' }); -CHAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 LWSChad Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Hi Chad, Livejournal has the same problem. You can disable Editor, than spell checkers should work, if it works for you. Thank you for the suggestion. I reached out to Caspio support, and they said I should add it to the IdeaBox.

0 Walter Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Oh, maybe they can add the "Spell Check" button to their Rich Text Editor. I believe, I saw this button on one of HTML Editors, but I didn't remember where exactly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kurumi Posted May 30, 2023 Report Share Posted May 30, 2023 Hi - I just wanted to share this sample use case. If you wish to disable the spellcheck, you can use spellcheck="false" to turn off spellcheck.You can use this code in the Footer of the DataPage: <script> document.querySelector("textarea[name='InsertRecordFIELDNAME']").spellcheck=false; </script> The code sample is from an element of Text Area, for other elements - you will need to select the right element such as the input.

0 ChrisCarlson Posted August 23 Report Share Posted August 23 Chad, You can get to the native browser spellcheck in Rich Text Editor by holding down the CTRL button and then selecting the red underlined (misspelled) text. For example in Google Chrome, it should give the normal menu that displays when right-clicking in the browser. I have only tested this in Google Chrome. I tried TinyMCE and got the menu to display, but when submitting my form the value in the text area field does not record. selector:'textarea#InsertRecordEmailBody', My field name is "note_content" - I am listing it as: selector:'textarea#InsertRecordnote_content', Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
