C# - How To Get Telerik's RadEditor's Spell Checker To Start Automatically When Incorrect Word Is Typed
Jan 25, 2011
Currently I have to click the Spell check button on RadEditor's toolbar to see the word suggestions. Is there any way for that? I did find a way to run Spell Checker on Submit Button click but how do I get what I want? I have gone through forums but in vain. Need help please. Thanks
Telerik people have not replied. It's been three days now so asking here. Anybody who is familiar with Telerik controls please help me out.

Anybody in here who is familiar with Telerik controls.
I have an issue using Telerik RadEditor with IE (not Firefox, not Chrome and not Safari). I think that i have a conflicting css style but i have no idea of wich one (tryed to delete most of the styles). I also tryed to add a ContentEditorArea.css.
How RadEditor displays in IE8 (not very different in IE7) : http://www.skalae.fr/radeditor.jpg
Currently I am developing website in asp.net. I wanted to include spellchecker module into my code.
It may not be fare to ask like this, but I don't have enough time to do R&D on that topic, of course I did enough study but I am unable to get the exact way to implement spell checker in my application.
Can any one suggest me how to implement spell checker and where to get source code.
I have been assigned a task to find a decent spell checker (UK English) preferably the free one for a project that we are doing.
I have looked at Google AJAX API for this. The project contains some young person's (kids less than 18 years old) data which shouldn't allow exposing or storing outside the application boundaries. Google logs the data for research purpose that means Google owns the data whatever we send over the wire through Google API. Is this right? I fired an email to Google regarding the privacy of data and storage but they haven't come back. If you have some knowledge regarding this At this point our servers might not have access to external entities that means we might not be able to use Web API for this over the wire. But it may change in the future. That means I have to find out some spell checker alternatives that can sit in our environment and do the job or an external APIs.
Would you mind share your findings and knowledge in this regard. I would prefer free services but never know if you have some cracking spell checker for a few quid's then I don't mind recommending to the project board. Technology using ASP.NET 3.5/4.0, MVC, jQuery, SQL Sever 2008 etc
Can any one provide me a good tutorial about to implement spell checker? that is I have a textarea and one button.. what ever I enterd in to the textarea i need to do the spellchecking on that..
I've used TinyMCE Editor for textareas in my webpage, it works fine but the problem is, I want the show only the Toggle Spell Checker button to user. I don't want to show any other buttons like bold, underline, etc.
I am using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition. I need a spell checker so while I am coding my spelling errors are brought to my attention.
I want add a image button beside textarea control and bind Toggle Spell Checker event to image button when clcked the image button.Is it possible to do that?If yes. How to achieve that?
I've used TinyMCE Editor for textareas in my webpage, it works fine but the problem is, When I select a only listed language English in Toggle Spell Checker it is throwing a javascript error.
I don't want to display the list (arrow for selection) for language selection as i only show English language in the list of Toggle Spell Checker.
How can i show only Toggle Spell Checker button, not language selection list?
<member name="P:Telerik.Web.UI.RadDataBoundControl.Skin"> <summary>Gets or sets the skin name for the control user interface.</summary> <value>A string containing the skin name for the control user interface. The default is string.Empty.</value> <remarks> <para> If this property is not set, the control will render using the skin named "Default". If EnableEmbeddedSkins is set to false, the control will not render skin. </para> </remarks> </member>
that says RadControls are using skin named Default..Now what if I want it to be not default ..what if I want it to be some CustomSkin to be rendered and not default skin?? Where do I need to set the value for the skin I wanna use? I don't know much of XML..so asking
Whats this xml file for anyway? Only describing stuff? What IS the purpose of this xml file??
[EDIT]
Tried setting Skin globally in webconfig.xml as mentioned in telerik's website as follows:-
RADEditor on my page was inheriting Master Page's CSS properties so followed this tutorial to create custom skin..now what I did was...I simply copied the Folder named "Default" under Skins folder and renamed it to "CustomSkin" and added it like in the code above ..thot it would work but it didn't coz now I don't see border on my RADEditor...why is that ? Also it is STILL inheriting properties from Master page's CSS file :(
I didn't change name of any of the CSS files inside "CustomSkin" folder...Also when I added the following inside "telerik:RadEditor"...still problem persisting..
The editor's using Default skin..when I made changes to Editor.Default.CSS file...they didn't reflect on my page..but when I type the following I can see the changes:-
Do I HAVE to create a custom Skin file for the changes to reflect ??I dont wanna coz the editor has been used in many files and now linking new custom CSS file in each and every aspx file will be such a pain.. I just want this to be added in the Skin:-
body { background-image:none; background-color:White; }
What this does is that it makes the background color of the content area white..earlier the content area of the Editor was inheriting background-image property of the Master Page's body tag...ohh and another funny issue is that the Font styles too are inheriting Master Page's properties only..like Heading 2 in the Editor's drop down list has got a background color when I want it to be simple..
So is making custom skin css file the only solution ..How do I get the changes to reflect thru the Default css file only ? I dont wanna create custom class..why didn't the changes reflect ?
In telerik:RadEditor tag ..I haven't specified any property such as Skin=Skin1 or whatever..so its using some default skin...In the Skins folder..there's this folder named "Default" that's got images and css files...Is "Default" what it's using ??? now when I change something in the Default skin's CSS file...changes do not reflect on my page...so how do I find out which css its using ??can't figure out nothing from a path like that
[edit]
For this Editor mainly 3 css files are being used namely Editor.Default.css,Window.Default.css and ToolBar.Default.css..now when I view page source , I can't find refernce to any of these 3 css files...Also in firebug , under "Styles" where that weird css path is shown, its displaying CSS classes like .reToolbar , etc...now ALL the Skins' CSS files have got this CSS class ".reToolbar" ..so how to find out which CSS file's class is this particular ".reToolbar class" ??
The required functionality I am aiming for is to pull out RTF content from a database, edit it through a web interface (with a WYSIWYG editor) and then place the modified text back in to the database (in RTF format).
The control that I am using to do this is Telerik RadEditor (we have a license already for these controls). In the most recent version there appears to be functionality to load in RTF content from a string or a stream, but the only method I can see that is exposed for getting RTF back out is exportToRTF(); this method modified the headers and allows you to save a RTF version of the content you have just edited as a file.
The functionality to convert from HTML to RTF must exist somewhere within their library as you can export a RTF file, but I can not find any publicly exposed methods to pass this in to a stream or a string.
Does anybody know of a way that I can convert the HTML back to RTF using the Telerik libraries without saving out to a file?
i m developing an application with richtextbox control and asp spell checker control in it.the prblm faced is that Spell check is happening but the change of wrong spelling is not taking place
The scenario in which it doesnt work is i Put some text in RichTextBox field then click on "spell check" button. It will prompt for the spelling mistakes, but when we select correct spelling it is not copying it in Rich text box contrl.
Note:the same scenario is working when i use simple text box contrl with asp spell checker contrl.
foreach (Control control in ContentPlaceHolder1.Controls) { if(typeof(Control).Equals(Telerik.Web.UI.RadEditor)) { label1.Visible = true; label1.Text = "dhchk"; // control.CssFiles.Add("~/styles/myStyle.css"); } }
Error;-
'Telerik.Web.UI.RadEditor' is a 'type', which is not valid in the given context
Also, is this the correct way to add CSS class to radEditor controls ??
control.CssFiles.Add("~/styles/myStyle.css");
I actually wanna add 3-4 customized classes..how to do that?
also I was wondering if I can add some javascript or something in my Master page that will detect the ALL the radEditor controls and set their css classes ? don't know much of Javascript..how can that be made possible? how do I go about that? but first I want css classes to be set in code behind..what's wrong with the code?
[EDIT]
@Geek..I tried calling like this..is it correct?
Control c = new Control(); DoSomething(c);
now its giving this error in the method:-
The type or namespace name 'c' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
[EDIT]
I do have this namespace added "using System.Web.UI.WebControls;" why this error ??
We are using Telerik RadEditor control in our project and having some problems with its integration with our user documents storage engine. We've implemented custom content provider for Telerik image manager and it shows correct documents in dialog. But in doesn't switch between images while selection. You can see this on this picture. We've tested this behaviour on the blank ASP.NET page without any additional CSS or JS. Rad editor tag could be found below. Please help! Why do this could happen?
