Thank you, that is helpful.

I have this code in my application:
ctrl.Attributes("onclick") = "CuteEditor_GetEditor(this).ExecCommand('PasteHTML',false,'<h2>Submit Here!!</h2>')"

As you can see, ExecCommand uses 'PasteHTML' as the first parameter. Firstly, I have no idea what these parameters are because they are within a string. I assume (which is a bad habit) that 'PasteHTML' is sometype of function name.

But I do not see 'PasteHTML' in the Toolbar reference documentation.
http://cutesoft.net/developer+guide/ReferenceToolbar.htm

Is there more than PasteHTML that is not in the list? I am trying to fire off a "SpellCheck" function but cannot get it to work. I have tried to use "netspell" as the first parameter to 'ExecCommand' but it doesnt seem to like that. Any suggestions on how to create a dynamic toolbar button using the existing "netspell" functionality with the ExecCommand as exampled above?

I hope that makes sense.
Thank you for all the help

HomecitySupport,

For the 'PasteHTML' issue, please use the following JavaScript API:

http://cutesoft.net/developer+guide/JavaScript-API.htm

PasteHTML()

This method is used for pasting the specified HTML into a range within a editor document. If anything is selected, the selection is replaced with the new HTML and text.

Example:

// get the cute editor instance
var editor1 = document.getElementById('<% = Editor1.ClientID%>');

// pasting the specified HTML into a range within a editor document
editor1.pasteHTML("Hello World");

For the netspell issue, please use the following code:

    // get the cute editor instance
    var editor1 = document.getElementById('<% = Editor1.ClientID%>');

    editor1.ExecCommand("netspell");

Demo is here:

Thank you, that put me towards the right direction but now I have a new problem.

I get a Javascript error, regarding "Object Expected".

Here is my Javascript Function:
function fireSpellCheck(){
// get the cute editor instance
var editor1 = document.getElementById('CE_Editor1_ID');
editor1.ExecCommand("netspell");
}

This works for "PasteHTML", "InsertDate" and pretty much anything else Ive tried from the command list. But for some reason when I used "netspell" it doesnt fire.

I also looked at the example on the Javascript API example page. There is a dropdown box that has a list of command names, "netspell" being one of them. It works over there, but I notice all you do is pass the option value to ExecCommand. What am I doing wrong?

NetSpell works when I leave the toolbar set to FULL. So I know my DLL references to NetSpell are fine. Its not a reference problem because I can use NetSpell with the full toolbar, I just need to minimize the toolbar and fire the Spell Check from a webForm button (or programmatically).

Thanks alot

HomecitySupport,

1. First:

Please use:

var editor1 = document.getElementById('<% = Editor1.ClientID%>');

instead of

var editor1 = document.getElementById('CE_Editor1_ID');

2. Does your existing toolbar contains Spell button?

If not, please add the following code at the top of your page:

For performance issue, if your existing toolbar doesn't contain the spell button, the above script will not be rendered by editor.

Does it help?

Thank you, that put me in the right direction. For some reason, Spell.js was not pathed correctly, or so I assume. Once I copied the contents of Spell.js into the script for my ASP page, it worked!!

Now I have another problem (yes another one!! lol)

How can I determine when "netspell" is complete?

I have to force a spellcheck to occur when a user sends off an email. Everytime they push "send", it will automatically invoke netspell to check for spelling errors. I have already spent alot of time writing VB code to validate the email message, SMTP server and all that good stuff. but I need to check for spelling and then fire my validation code.

Would you recommend that I call my VB Validation functions through Javascript, once the netspell is completed?

how can I tell netspell is complete? is there a flag or property?

Thank you so much for your support, You have been a great help!
