CIII. Pspell Functions

Introduction

These functions allow you to check the spelling of a word and offer suggestions.

Requirements

To compile PHP with pspell support, you need the aspell library, available from http://aspell.sourceforge.net/.

Installation

If you have the libraries needed add the --with-pspell[=dir] option when compiling PHP.

Note to Win32 Users: win32 support is available only in PHP 4.3.3 and later versions. Also, you must have aspell 0.50 or newer installed. In order to enable this module under Windows, you must copy aspell-15.dll from the bin folder of your aspell installation to a folder where PHP will be able to find it. C:\PHP or the SYSTEM32 folder of your windows machine (Ex: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 or C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32) are good choices.
