HTML Spell Checker and Java Spell Checker, compatible with JavaScript, open source software, Ajax, ASP .NET, JSP, CGI, Java Applets and Servlets.
What is JSpell
JSpell is a spell checker software API. The Page Scholar implementation of JSpell enables spell checking in the user interfaces of software such as web pages (HTML, ASP, JSP, CGI, etc.), Java applets and applications. There are various JSpell components, some of which allow spell checking in HTML Form and Text Input Fields and some, which allow spell checking inside Java Applets and Applications. Most of our software is designed for developers and systems administrators of web sites.
The same core spell checking engine is the basis for all of our products. This means that all of our products have gone through a rigorous testing and quality assurance process to make sure that no matter what front end you use, the spell checker will work, all the time. Our spell checker core engine is Java based, which means it is platform neutral. We have customers using JSpell with Microsoft IIS ASP.NET, Classic ASP, Perl, JSP, Lotus Domino, Oracle Forms, SilverStream, WebLogic, WebSphere, JBoss, CGI and of course standalone Java.
How does it work
JSpell takes a block of text from either a GUI component or another source (an HTML Form, for example) and extracts individual words. JSpell then validates these words against a small in memory dictionary and then checks any words that were not found against either a disk based or network based dictionary (depending upon which version of the software you are using).
JSpell HTML, JSpell IFrame and JSpell Evolution use JavaScript on the client (browser). If you are using Microsoft IIS then the spell check request is sent to an ASP page (Classic ASP or ASP.NET) that runs on your server to do the spell checking. If you are using a Java based server then the spell check request is sent to a Java JSP page running on your server.
In either case, your server performs the spell check of the submitted text and return the results to the browser. The corrections to the text are made directly in the original text area.
