JQuery Spell Checker and Word Count

Question

User115974766 posted

Does anyone know of any good free JQuery plugins that provide spell checking and word count functionality for multi-line textboxes?  I tried using CKeditor but I'm experiencing JSON issues in IE 8.   I'm using .net 4.0 and I need to be able to support IE 8,9, and 10.

Hi Eric V,

We could attach Spell Checker and WordCount plugins to CKEditor.

I experience issues when using ckeditor with Internet Explorer 8.   I receive Microsoft JScript runtime error: 'JSON' is undefined.  I'm trying to find another solution that provides the same functionality.

Hi Eric V,

Nataraj and Sandeep have share us some jQuery SpellChecker plugins, you could check the links to know the basic usage of these jQuery SpellChecker plugins.

Besides, you could try to use the following jQuery word counter plugins.
