Leatherlips - I believe the problem is that our forums are both behind firewalls that don't have access to Google. Thus making this awesome mod fail. If I use the same forum code on a server that has access to google then it works fine. Sound right? or is your code use the end users connection to talk with Google?

Try this:

In googie.asp remove the following line:

lang = request.querystring("lang")

And in googie.asp look for this:

response.write getURL("https://www.google.com/tbproxy/spell?lang=" & lang, t, "","")

And replace it with this:

response.write getURL("http://www.google.com/tbproxy/spell?lang=en", t, "","")

That would indeed be the problem. The MOD needs to access Google's servers.<

For the life of me I can't recall if the server or the client (specifically) needs access to Google. This MOD wasn't intended to run isolated from the internet.<

The download for this comes with a script that acts as a proxy to the google servers. More info about how to do this can be found here as well:

Hi Leatherlips

Thanks vary much for this additional facility. I've inserted it into my Forum and it works just fine.

Best regards

As an observation, when using the Googiespell 'Check Spelling' button, once the text has been checked and spelling mistakes underlined there are some changes in appearance to the post.asp page.
Firstly the font inthe textarea that is now displayed is different to the original textarea prior to check. Secondly, the whole posting area box shrinking in size at this stage and returns to original size after 'resume editing' is pressed.

Is there a solution to a keep the fonts identical prior, during and after spellchecking (ideally all the same as the default forum font) and more importantly to stop the resizing box. (is it anything to do with when the 'Resume Editing' button is visible, that the spellc.gif image is not showing) (It does spoil an overall brilliant mod)<

This thread popping up reminded me, has anyone else experienced this mod not working in IE7? If so, have you fixed it?

You can change this in the googiespell.js file. Look for
//Set the style so it looks like edit areas
and edit the various properties shown below that to suit your needs.<

I'm sorry guy I know you addressed this already but I didn't understand how to fix it. I don't know a lot about codeing. Spell check comes back no spelling errors no mater how badly spelled it is. my site is

I understand it is a problem with my server firewall, but not how to fix it. Again I’m sorry I know you posted a link to the code to fix it but don’t understand how to use it or where to put it.
