I want to create an ASP file which will calculate the RGL of information supplied in a text box. The only part I am having difficulty with is calculating the number of words which have more than two syllables. Does anyone have any ideas, short of simply asking the instructor to supply a count?< |

The problem that I have with MS Word's method is that it does not consider multisyllabic words at all. It ignores that facet of readability.< |

If you end up asking the instructor to supply the information, last I checked most word processors cam supply the RGL. I know Word has had that functionality since Office 2000, and I would imagine that the OpenOffice.org guys have managed to add that in.< |
