Currently Composer uses InlineSpellCheck and Editor has no UI at all. We should standardise on InlineSpellCheckUI.
Attached patch Composer first pass (deleted) — Splinter Review
For some reason turning spell checking on or changing the language isn't consistently checking the whole document. Midas works fine, of course :-(

As glazou mentioned, spellchecking a large document can be quite slow, so spellchecking always default to off when opening or when rebuilding source. Should I turn spellchecking off when you switch to preview mode?

Sorry for the prolonged spam ;-( It's not actually broken; when I was testing it I assumed it was on by default, but it's not. Hence, the broken context menu is only when Spellcheck As You Type is off.
An editor context menu hack was conflicting with the spellcheck code. Unfortunately my dev tree has an (unreviewed) fix for that hack...

Since we're hoping to unfork EdSpellCheck.js we can do one of two things: a) support both the old editorInlineSpellCheck.js and the new toolkit b) wait for Thunderbird to switch to toolkit and remove the old spellchecker This patch implements (a).
Attachment #252210 - Flags: superreview?(mscott)
Attachment #252210 - Flags: review?(iann_bugzilla)
Neil, I'd be interested in working on option (b) if you have more details. Are there two interfaces for accessing the inline spell checker? InlineSpellChecker and InlineSpellCheckerUI? And Thunderbird is using the wrong one?
Scott, you may remember InlineSpellChecker was part of the original inline spell checker. However when Google implemented inline spell checking for web pages they created their own spell check UI module. SeaMonkey has since switched to using this module for all our spell checking needs, including web composer. The API for the two spell checker UI modules is different, of course. Here are some examples: InlineSpellChecker.inlineSpellChecker.ignoreWords becomes InlineSpellCheckerUI.mInlineSpellChecker.ignoreWords InlineSpellChecker.checkDocument(window.content.document); becomes InlineSpellCheckerUI.mInlineSpellChecker.spellCheckRange(null); if (InlineSpellChecker.inlineSpellChecker && InlineSpellChecker.inlineSpellChecker.enableRealTimeSpell) becomes if (InlineSpellCheckerUI.enabled) Of course, if you have any issues with the toolkit inline spell checker UI then feel free to contact pkasting who I believe is the current owner.
I need to test this a little more, but this patch basically ports Neil's seamonkey changes to Thunderbird to use InlineSpellCheckerUI. As a result, no one else in the tree is using the now obsolete, InlineSpellChecker.js so I cvs removed that file as well.

alternatively, couldn't we port Ian's original change to add ignore word support to InlineSpellCheckerUI as well?

Big thanks to all who worked on this. Great to finally have spell checking throughout Mozilla, however I do have one small issue. How come Spelling was placed in the already crowded Edit menu rather than in the relatively underpopulated tools menu? Why was it given the shortcut Ctrl+K rather than F7 a shortcut that millions of users have come to expect from products such as Microsoft Word, OpenOffice.org, and others? F7 is a shortcut not otherwise in use in Mozilla and adding to the confusion Ctrl+K might be familiar to Firefox users as the shortcut to jump into the search box, and it would seem like it was chosen largely because it was available. I would have filed a separate request to change it but before doing that I must know the reason why it was done this way, there must be a reason? (and I will file a request in due course if appropriate) I can understand the small possible ergonomics benefit of using a letter like K rather than a more awkward to reach Function key like F7 but the usability and consistency disadvantage of doing things differently from so many other programs should more than outweigh that concern.
(In reply to comment #41) >How come Spelling was placed in the already crowded Edit menu rather than in >the relatively underpopulated tools menu? I don't know.

Moving it to the tools menu sounds reasonable to me. > > >Why was it given the shortcut Ctrl+K rather than F7 > Because that's what thousands of former Netscape users have come to expect. Ah, right. I'm a big fan of consistency. Hard to know if the change is worth it (and I wish we could probably test the theory) but I would suspect those longterm Netscape users would have a significant overlap with users of Office products which use F7 as a shortcut for spellchecking. (For what it is worth Wordperfect uses Ctrl+F1. The use of F7 does seem to stem from Microsoft Office and those who follow them.) > >F7 is a shortcut not otherwise in use in Mozilla > But it is on use on the Mac... Hmm, Mac seems like a significant problem. Thanks, request filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377328
