Thanks for all the hard work, Guru!

That reminds me - if you find that your popup stopper is stopping that popup
1) let us know about it 2) maybe enable wienerboard.com for popups maybe 3) or don't ever use it, we won't mind (unless you're one of the people that REALLY NEEDS TO SPELLCHECK)

Actually, the hard work was completely wasted. I gave up on the way that I had been working this at around 11pm last night and went a completely different route. This spell checker uses the same back-end component (GNU Aspell) but a completely different front end approach.
I still need to make sure that linking to this doesn't put the entire board code under the GPL - if it does, I probably have to pull the spell checker since we don't own 100% of the board code.
//edit:
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
Well, I think that means that it only applies to the portion of the code directly involved with spell checking, and not to any pages that call the spell checker. That's how I'm reading it, anyway. I'll be glad to remove it if there is a different meaning that I'm not getting.
Here's the thing though - while it says that it is GPL on the hostscripts site, the download I got from Sourceforge has no license info at all, nor does Sourceforge say what license it is under. I'm wondering if this is actually even GPLd. It may just be free code (which would also be pretty cool).

I haven't tested it or set up a custom word list for the site yet.
Don't bitch, it's better than nothing.
The checker is great & I know it would be a pain to set up a total custom word list, but as a start would it be tough to add all of the registered usernames to the dictionary...? :-)
