Maybe you should use Google as a spell checker???

I have FF 29, and the spell checker (I guess it is Hunspell?) pretty much sucks.
It can't figure out couldn by adding an apostrophe-t, rather is suggests "could n" like that's even a thing.
I wasn't aware bu was a word, but it isn't flagged as an error.
Ans a host of other problems with that. (oh, look, the ans at the beginning of this sentence is not flagged either. I guess that is OK as there is an Ans city in Denmark, but the one in the middle if this sentence should be flagged as it should be capitalized.)
Google, on the other hand, almost always gets it right. If I mistype a word, it comes back with "did you mean..." and it has been wrong only twice in the last 5 years or so.
Perhaps you could write a spell check plug-in that uses the Google search engine and comes back with it's suggestions and abandon Hunspell.
Just my 2 cents,
Mark.

  • Lost Page on when you should use MVC vs when you should use web forms

    I read a page last week.  I think it was on MSDN.  It was talking about the relative merits of MVC and web forms.  However, unlike the page http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd381412.aspx,
    which merely states the advantages and disadvantages of each format, this page went on to state something like:
    You should use MVC:
    when building web apps that do this
    when you web app needs that
    when you are doing the other
    You should use web forms:
    when building these other kinds of web app
    when your web app does this other thing
    when your web app does this.
    Does anyone know the page to which I am referring?
    (Oh and since when did it become impossible to paste anything into a question or reply block in MSDN forums.  This makes it very difficult to paste in page links.)
    Also I am not seeing an appropiate forum in my forums dropdown list.  So if a moderator wants to move it to the right forum I would appreciate it.

    The first link is not what I was looking for as it tells the difference between MVC and Web Forms but not which is better for what.
    The second link does get more into which is better in certain situations but doesn't really analyze each type of project and specify that this is good for web forms and this is good for MVC.  However, it does provide some ways to analyze if your
    "situation" would be best served by using web forms and which would be best served by using MVC. 
    It specified that if reaction time is an issue then MVC is the answer.  This is good because with our excruciatingly slow network we need apps that take inherantly as little time as possible to load.
    I took another look at the link provided by gaurav.  Turns out that link has a link to an article by Dino Espisito which actually has the statement that I referred to above i.e. if your app has a lot of busines data.  After two years, that
    is as much as I remember of that page.  So in fact indirectly gaurav found the page I was looking for.
    Too bad I did not re-read this link when I started the current project, though.  One thing each of them says is that if your team (in this case me) has not had much experience in handling html elements directly then MVC is not a good fix for them. 
    For the last 6 months theis has been a major learning process in using JQuery, AJAX, and MVC to accomplish tasks which I've could have done using server controls and web forms with my eyes closed.  Too bad they don't make MVC so that you can use server
    controls with it.
    However since this thread is so old and unlike "Whose Line is it Anyway?" the points
    do matter. I am going to award the answer to gaurav.  Thanks everyone for providing some very interesting links on MVC.

  • Use different language and Spell check

    Hello, just got an iPad to supplement my two Android phones, and like it so far...
    Except for one thing that drives me nuts...
    The spell check. I live in Scandinavia, but like to use English as my interface language. This causes major problems, when I write something in Danish.
    Is there any way to have English as the interface language, but use another language for spell checking?
    Also, is there a way to use two different languages in spellcheck? Its really annoying to have English words pop up as suggestions when I write something in a different language and vice versa...

    From a user perspective this is wrong UX and lacks total support for multi-national companies, especially when the (national) keyboard layout differs from the (foreign) keyboard layout that is being forced to use if one wants the spell check to be performed in the foreign languge.
    Let's take the following example.  My language settings are set to English because I want my interface in English. The used keyboard layout is Flemish (=Dutch) (AZERTY).  When writing emails the spell check is performed in Dutch since iOS uses the keyboard related language.  This is fine as long as I write emails to people in Belgium which do read and speak Dutch.  However when I want to write English emails (and hence would like English spell check) I am forced to switch my keyboard to English (UK).  This is not really OK as switching the keyboard messes up the layout I am used to work with (English -> QWERTY).
    Essentially, the selected keyboard (and keyboard layout for that matter) shouldn't have any impact on the used language for the spelling check.  To be honest I can't remember of any application/OS used so far that applies this logic.
    I really do hope that this gets fixed in some way (e.g. by adding the option to select the spelling check language) in a future update of iOS.

  • Spell check for my hotmail

    If I use internet explorer to open hotmail, I have a spell check!
    Using Firefox , I have no spell check, I have tried importing a dictionery but still no spell check.
    What must I do !

    Suggest installing "After the Deadline - Spell and Grammar Checker" extension works great -- thanks for the question. (see below)
    I'm not aware of spell checker, grammar checking, or a thesaurus built-in to Hotmail. It would use what you are using in Firefox.
    Spell checking is built-in to Firefox, but it is only partially implemented. See
    *http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/tab_capacity/001_with_underscore.htm#spellcheck
    *http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/tab_capacity/001_with_underscore.htm#spellcheck_jumpstart
    You might check these add-ons out, the first gets you spelling and grammar, I don't know if the others would work in the input area. I'll be trying the first one, size seems reasonable for what I expect it to do. Worked great - spotted that l'd left out the word "don't".

  • How do you Spell Check w/ Word, Without using webutil?

    In our v6 forms we were able to use MS Word's spell check, how can I do this with a 10g form without using webutil?

    Jim, thanks for the update. Some of the recent version of Jinitiator have included bug fixes relating to proxies. (though I suppose Support has gone through this with you).
    I don't want to confuse the issue here but while Oracle Forms 10g is only certified on certain JVMs etc, we did run some webutil specific certification tests on Sun JDK 1.4.2 and that was ok (but again please cross reference this the Forms client certification since this testing was just and aside for the webutil QA).
    If you need this functionality I think it would be worth seeing if a bug can be identified in Jinit and seeing if we can fix that -you may have worked with Support on this already...but as I said, check with the latest Jinit anyway to make sure. (1.3.1.17 or 18 I think off the top of my head)
    Thanks

  • Can you still use Home Sharing?

         Can you still use Home Sharing?    I have a Mac Mini (10.6.3) a Ipad (3rd Gen.) and a 3rd Gen. Apple TV.  All on the same home network and router. All three have Home Sharing turned on. All with the same account and all with the same password but they don't see each other. Since we're talking about three devices that don't see each other, I figure it must be something in the way I have it setup or Apple did away with the function.
         Can anyone point me in the right direction or shed some light on this problem.
         Thanks

    Well I can tell you that Apple did not do away with it because I am still using home sharing. Maybe you should go through this support article.

    When I try to open the EOS digital solution disk ver 24.1 for my new Canon Rebel T3i camera on my Mac 10.5.8 a notice "this software is not supported by the CPU you are using" comes up
    You need to contact Canon - or read the software specs - it sounds like the software you got form them is not supported by your computer
    Do I need this software?
    Probably not - exactly what about it do you want?
    Can I just download the pictures to my Mac without using the Canon software?
    Probably - if you are shooting JPEG - launch iPhoto and in the iPhoto preferences set action when a camera is connected to launch iPhoto and connect your camera - iPhoto should launch and you should be able to import
    Some cameras need to be set to mass storage mode - read your camera manual for details and procedures
    If you are using RAW then your camera needs to be on this list and you need the versions of software noted - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4757 - for older OS versions you can use google to find the list of supported cameras

  • How do you spell check a field?

    How are people spell checking their fields?
    In searching around, I have only found (a) suggestions to yank the text into MS Word, do a spell check, then yank the resulting text into the field; (b) software from DC AL CODA that we aren't clear how they actually work (http://www.dcalcoda.com).
    Specifically, my manager wants a tool that'll interface with Oracle like this: give a table name and a field name and be asked about each spelling error, much like an email spell check. The tool would change things as you ask, directly in the database. You wouldn't have to cut and paste into it and back to the db fields.
    We aren't using forms. We use SQL*Plus, Quest Software's TOAD, and our own Java servlets (using JDBC to enter SQL statements).
    I would love to hear how people do their spell checking.
    Hopefully this is an appropriate forum for this question. There doesn't seem to be a general or SQL forum. Our database tables include a fair amount of text that shows up on Web pages. These are the fields we want to spell check.

    I thought I'd reply to my own question since I found a workable solution, at least for our office which has MS Windows.
    MS Access can connect directly to an Oracle data source. Access has a spell checking feature where you can select a field and spell check it. Below are tips and instructions for doing this.
    TIPS:
    It's surely a good idea to back up tables and be the only person or process changing those tables during the spell check.
    One thing to watch for is whether the entire table comes in. At the bottom of the screen is a >* button which seems to get all fields. For large tables, you have to hit this button before you get the entire table.
    Another glitch is that all of the given database user's tables show up in one list box -- makes for some painful scrolling, but all of the tables are listed.
    A much smaller glitch is that if you widened any of the fields in the view of the table, when you close the window, it asks if you want to save the formatting. It has nothing to do with saving the data (that is automatic). It's safe to say no.
    The spell check doesn't recognize HTML tags (asks about "br"s from <br> tags) but seems to know to ignore things like &quot;
    How to set up an ODBC Data Source in Windows:
    1. MS Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> ODBC Data Sources (32 bit)
    2. Drivers tab, scroll down and select Oracle ODBC Driver
    3. OK
    4. User DSN tab, Add...
    5. Select Oracle ODBC Driver and Finish
    6. Make up a data source name (example: src)
    7. Enter a description for it
    8. For Service name, put what your service name is (for an SQL*Plus connection, 'usr/passwd@svc', this is 'svc')
    9. For UserID, put your user id (for an SQL*Plus connection, 'usr/passwd@svc', this is 'usr')
    10. Ignore the rest of the fields, click OK
    11. Another OK.
    How to use Access to Spell Check an ODBC Data Source Field:
    0. Install Access from (MS Office 2000).
    1. Start Access (by the way, you might find it way down the list in Start -> Programs).
    2. Open file, in the file type box, scroll to the end: ODBC Databases. You'll get a dialog.
    3. Machine Data Source tab, select the name you gave it (src in step 6 above)
    4. You'll be prompted for the password (for an SQL*Plus connection, 'usr/passwd@svc', this is 'passwd')
    5. Select from the huge list of every table the table you want. Ok.
    5.a. If the table has no key, you'll be prompted for the unique key from a list of all fields.
    6. Double click the item that has just been added to the dialog that remains on the screen. It'll have a globe next to text like USR_TABLENAME. This brings up a randomly sized first chunk of the table.
    7. To make sure you get the entire table, on the paging buttons on the bottom (|< < > >| >*), click >*. It may take a few moments to get a huge table.
    8. Click the heading of the field (column) you want to spell check). This selects the entire column.
    9. Hit spell check (ABC checkmark tool or Tools -> Spelling)
    10. Check away. The changes are made immediately to the database.
    11. Close the table display window.

  • Bug in Mail when using Google Apps Gmail and sync

    I found a bug in the sync process between the Mac and the phone. If you have Mail (on the computer) set to use Google Apps for Your Domain, the sync on the phone changes the user for the mail account. I assume this is because it sees "smtp.gmail.com" or something and decides to "protect" you from having an incorrect user account.
    So for example, if you're using Google Apps and your e-mail is [email protected], Mail (on the computer) will also have smtp.gmail.com and pop.gmail.com as the servers. When sync'd to the phone, iTunes or the phone decide to change the user account for both servers to [email protected]@gmail.com, which is of course not what we want.
    I'm kind of annoyed that they're trying to protect us like this.

    Yeah unfortunately if you tried to send an e-mail
    before discovering that bug, you will have an error
    message show every time you access Mail saying "the
    sender address [email protected]@gmail.com was
    rejected by the server."
    I can't get it to go away even by deleting the
    account on iPhone and not setting it to sync.
    Anybody know of a fix?
    -AJT
    Yes. Create the GMail account on your iPhone using the Other shortcut instead of the GMail shortcut. That will let you specify whatever address you want.

  • How do you effectively use if,for, type loops in TestStand. Do you have to use the goto command or is there a way of writing actual c type code (perhaps using the statement step in teststand) with the variables allready declared.

    Thank you
    Arik

    I assume your loop is more than just one step. You should use the 'Loop Options' for a single step.
    For looping on a group of steps, you can place them all in a sub sequence and then set the 'Loop Options' for the 'SequenceCall' step to set up your looping conditions. Pass values to and from the sub-sequence by Parameters.
    You can keep the loop inline with the rest of your sequence by using 'Goto' or using 'Goto destination' in the Post Actions tab of the condition step.
    Using a sub sequence will keep it easier to read and maintain.
