I have a web based application which sends mails to a mail box .Apprently Domino does not provide any spell checker on web for R6. We are not using iNotes/DWA or DOLS as the application is a simple one and spell check is a user request .

Any any one suggest the best way to incorporate spell check for my applciation.

Thanks in Advance
 
Spell checkers are one of those things that are an amazingly simple concept, but frustratingly difficult to implement. In order to do spell checking on the web, you'd really need to ensure that the dictionary file that you were referencing against was local to the user's machine which is a huge overhead. Otherwise, each iteration of the spell check is going to require a server round-trip.

It depends on how useful you want the spell check to be. A button that the users can click prior to sending the message to have the server run through it using an agent and a server-side dictionary file would work reasonably well... but a real-time, highlight-my-mistakes-as-I-type spell checker a la microsoft word would be considerably more difficult.
