[Building Sakai] CKEditor & Spelling correction.

[Steve Swinsburg]

The accessibility people might be able to provide more info but we did
discuss TinyMCE and IIRC the reason we went with CKeditor was to do with
accessibility. Probably also the extensions we have for picking files etc.
That said, accessibility seems to be taken care of:
http://www.tinymce.com/tryit/accessibility.php

The page you pasted talks about google spell and aspell. We used aspell in
FCKeditor and it was a bit buggy, might have been the plugin though. I'm
interested to know more about the google spell one, sounds like it might be
a goer. As long as it fails gracefully when remote connection is
unavailable.

cheers,
Steve
