Rich Text Field - Spell Check

[LWSChad]

Hi Gurus!

 

A while back I switched from TinyMCE to Caspio's Rich Text editor ,

and recently noticed the native browser Spell Check doesn't work  .

(I tested in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox)

 

The spell check works in "Source", but not in the "Rich Editing" mode.

 

Anybody know how to get around this?

 

Thanks

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;'
});

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. (?!?)

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.

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.
