Good question... off hand I'd say no since all the MOD does is pass the text to the Google Spell Checker - unless you can convince Google that they need to add those words..

I'd be happy to be proved wrong though.<

AnonJr is correct. The spell checker uses Googles spell checker.<

Not yet, been playing with my new photo gallery today. Learning PHP now a little at a time.

I'll check it out though, I just have the generic button no.

That doesn't seem to cause a problem at all. The spell checker does indeed recognize the words between forum tags.<

Oops, meant to say try [b]tst[/b].

Normal use of Google APIs require you to obtain a license key.
http://www.google.com/apis/index.html
Here is a page that details how to use the Google API to check spelling:
http://www.asp101.com/articles/jeremy/googlespell/default.asp

As you can see you need to provide your own license key. I didn't see any mention in the readme or anywhere else of this mod of where to put your license key.

After noticing the method used in this mod is completely different from the license way of spell checking I did some research. It appears this method is a reverse engineer of the google toolbar spell check. I also found out that "leatherlips" isn't the original author of this either. The original can be found here: http://amix.dk/googiespell

Since google places limits on the number of spell checks you can do in a day, as per their normal license agreement, you might want to be carefull about using this toolbar hack. If your site is popular and google notices a large number of spell checks coming from a single IP address you might get blacklisted.<

Found a Bug!
When adding a New Forum Category or editing a Forum Category I get a popup message when clicking the "Create New Category" or "Edit Category Name" admin icons........
Popup Message--> "Text Area Not Found"

Before I installed this mod I installed the usergroups mod, so at first I didn't know which one caused the bug.
First I ran My post.asp backup before installing usergroup code. No Bug!
Then I ran post.asp with usergroup code. Again No Bug!
Then I ran post.asp with usergroup and googlespell code. Now I have Bug!
To be double sure I took the post.asp file backup without usergroup and googlespell code. Then added the googlespell code only. Had the Bug!

On My site IM running SHN code
Heres My SHN post.asp with my last 2 mods installed (UserGroups and GoogleSpell)

I give credit to the author of Googiespell in the readme. I simply implemented it in Snitz as a MOD for others to use if they wanted. I have an earlier post that clearly posts my interest about the googiespell and asked if anyone knew how to make it work for Snitz.

This actually is not a bug. In the googiespell.js file, there is a script that causes this alert to appear. When you are creating or editing a new category, the googiespell is noticing that there isn't a textarea that is requiring to be spell checked. You can click the alert box's OK and then create/edit as normal. However, I do agree that it is annoying.

To prevent the Text Area Alert you can do this:

Open the googiespell.js file and look for:

else 
    if(this.report_ta_not_found)
      alert("Text area not found");

Add the part in red shown below:

//  else 
//    if(this.report_ta_not_found)
//      alert("Text area not found");

Or you can simply remove those three lines completely.<

Actually, I would not recommend commenting out the lines because there is a boolean type variable for preventing this message from appearing. Modify this variable in googiespell.js:

this.report_ta_not_found = true;

to

this.report_ta_not_found = false;<
