Hi,

As recently discussed on the webkit-qt mailing list, it would be great if the spell checking feature of webkit was available in QtWebkit version. Antonio Gomes recommended that I file a feature request. (FYI the discussion thread can be found here: https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-qt/2010-July/000660.html )

Here's a summary of the problem:

I have an HTML editor implemented in Qt 4.6.2 that uses a contenteditable QWebView. I'd like to enable webkit spell checking in the editable webview (with a line under misspelled words), but it doesn't seem to work.

Here's my small test case:

<html>
<head></head>
<body spellcheck='true'>
<div contentEditable='true'>Helo wurld!</div>
</body>
</html>

This works as expected in Safari 5.0 (the misspelled words are underlined in red), but not in the QWebView based editor.

Thanks 

David
