Hello.. this is pretty cool.. so I had to check it out for myself.. cause LORD knows I could use a spell checker!
HUMM.. I might be lame, but the spell checker wanted me to download something, but only gave me French or German.

Good job -borg- on implementing more stuff! A spell checker rocks!
I think a spell checker is cool and understand the need for a 3rd party app to assist. However, I think you (all of us) are gonna have to figure out a way to educate users on ieSpell. Simply put, some users have trouble with copy/paste much less being prompted to download and install an app. Maybe it needs to be an optional feature controlled in the admin?
Of course, I know have ieSpell installed on my pcs~~

The problems with the colour pallete are now fixed so the page won't jump if the cursor is not within the text area when selecting it. Also now when you move the mouse back to the text area the pallete will disappear.
I've looked at spell checkers using Word and found that not only are they difficult to implement but if someone desn't have Word installed it costs allot of money to purchase it.
isSpell is free and simple to install, also whittibo mentioned it is only avaialble in French and German, but if you check the page more closly all the mirror sites just above these links are for the English version.
If I can find away to implement both word and isSpell I will do so, but at the moment isSpell seems to be the simplest and work very well with the forum.

Very nice indeed with the color palet. Haven't tested the spell checker though.
My comments/questions are:
- It takes more time to load the message form now (something like 2 secs more on my 128 m/bit conection). Not much, but maybe still worth thinking about.
- Will this editor be in v 7.02?

The new editor is a heavily modified version of the WYSIWYG Editor form the following site that you can download:-
http://www.kevinroth.com/rte/demo.htm
This in turn is a heavily modified version of the WYSIWYG Editor from Web Wiz Forums.
Thre reason why it takes longer to download is that the JavaScript include file with all the code has gone from 50 lines to 160 lines of code to make it corss browser compatible and also add the new features, this adds an extra 5kb but your browser should cache this file, aslo there are 3 extra buttons that require optimizing that need to be downloaded.
If it works correctly this editor will be in version 7.02.
