help with spellcheck dialog - RapidSpell Web ASP.NET - Forum

Hi,

I am trying to dynamically create a spellcheck button to launch the spellcheck dialog and I need to trigger the onchange event if the text is changed. The spellcheck button should only check a specific textbox. I couldn't find the documentations on how to set up the RapidSpellWebLauncher, so I am not sure if this is correct. I am open to other ways of setting up the spellchecker to achieve this. Any reference or help would be great.

I have this code in the code behind
...
RapidSpellWebLauncher spellCheckButton = new RapidSpellWebLauncher();
spellCheckButton.ID = "_launcher";
spellCheckButton.TextComponentInterface = TextComponentInterfaceType.Custom;
spellCheckButton.RapidSpellWebPage = "../../Keyoti_RapidSpell_Web_Common/POPUP.ASPX";
spellCheckButton.TextComponentName = "TBox";
...


I have these functions in the master:
function RSCustomInterface(tbElementName) {
this.tbName = tbElementName;
this.getText = getText;
this.setText = setText;
function getText() {
return document.getElementsByName(this.tbName)[0].value;
//return eval('document.' + this.tbName + '.value');
}
function setText(text) {
var oldText = this.getText();
document.getElementsByName(this.tbName)[0].value = text;
//eval('document.' + this.tbName + '.value = text');
if (oldText != text) {
//eval('document.' + this.tbName + '.onchange.call()');
document.getElementsByName(this.tbName)[0].onchange.call();
}
}
}

When I click on the spell check button, I get this error:
Microsoft JScript runtime error: Unable to get value of the property 'document': object is null or undefined


Thanks.

I wanted the textbox onchange event to be triggered when the spellchecker corrects the text in the textbox.

Thanks, I ask because it can be done differently in v4.

Sorry I don't know why you would get "Unable to get value of the property 'document': object is null or undefined" from the custom interface, but I would suggest

i) Don't set spellCheckButton.TextComponentInterface = TextComponentInterfaceType.Custom;

ii) Set spellCheckButton.TextComponentName to the ClientID of TBox, rather than the name - it's more reliable.

iii) Set spellCheckButton.FinishedListener="notifyDone" and spellCheckButton.FinishedListenerInformState=true;


<script type='text/javascript'>
function notifyDone(completed){
alert('Finished event captured spell check was complete '+completed);
}
</script>

Here are the docs for v3 btw http://keyoti.com/produc...ocumentation/Index.html

Are you using a RapidSpellWebMultiple control?

Can I see more of your code, such as in what context you're doing the above, where you're adding spellCheckButton and any other controls of ours?

Thanks

>No I did not use the RapidSpellWebMultiple control. Do I need to use it?

No you don't.

I wonder if this fixes your problem?

The error isn't what I would expect, but it should help.

I can give you an example, but I suspect it being so simple, it's not going to reproduce your problem - can you shed more light on what you're doing, eg. is AJAX involved? are you calling the code above in a button handler? how do you add spellCheckButton to the form? is DHTML/JQuery involved? is spellCheckButton added inside an iframe?

The devil will be in the details.

Thanks

Glad you found the problem and let us know the cause, thanks. For anyone else, RapidSpell-DIALOG.js is a replacement for the controls and shouldn't be used with them. It's also for v4, only.

I just have a question about the Finished event. I would like to know if the text was changed. Is there any property that would give me this information?

I'm afraid not - to do that you have to go back to what you were doing before, using the custom interface and not using the Finished event.



(I changed it to use getElementById)
