[webkit-qt] Spellcheck in QtWebkit

Sat Jul 3 04:07:36 PDT 2010

Hi,

I have an HTML editor implemented in Qt 4.6.2 that uses a
contenteditable QWebView. I'd like to enable webkit spell checking in
the editable webview (with a line under misspelled words), but I can't
seem to get it working.

Here's my small test case:

<html>
<head></head>
<body spellcheck='true'>
<div contentEditable='true'>Helo wurld!</div>
</body>
</html>

This works as expected in Firefox 3.6.6 and Safari 5.0 (the misspelled
words are underlined in red), but not in my QWebView based editor.

Is this feature currently supported in QtWebkit? Is there something
else I have to do to enable it?

Thanks

David
