HTMLArea and SpellCheck plugin

Anybody successfully implemented a tomcat webapp that uses the HTMLArea
editor and the SpellChecker plugin (both free from Interactive Tools and
Dynarch) ?
 
TIA
 
Steve.

My 2 pence worth is that whilst all these are great, intergating them with 
existing functionality such as asset manegment (Images, documents etc) is 
such a pain that it is best to do your own.

Isnt HTMLArea IE only? I used FCKeditor for about a year, love it.
After much searching, I think it is the best.

I noted that it's on 2.0, which is good, but it's not considered final.  I 
like that it appears to be a bit more active than HTMLArea.

I noticed I had some weird problems using Firefox and FckEditor with the
dropdowns if I used the default theme, but if I changed to a different theme
(I like Noia 2.0) the problems go away.

for me, the fckeditor drop-downs don't work.  The font, size, etc select
areas.  I click them, and then they roll-up before I can select a different
value.

and yah, how about that name?

Aside from the odd name (we do have to give credit after all!), that does look like a nice one.  Has anybody used it enough to know how stable it is?  I noted that it's on 2.0, which is good, but it's not considered final.  I like that it appears to be a bit more active than HTMLArea.

What do people think about HTMLArea?  It seems one of the only free HTML 
textarea type widgets out there.  I think the latest has greater support 
than just IE, which is critical in a public web site.

do you mean the spell checker 'plugin' that just uses
http://spellchecker.net to check spelling? For the likes of informal
forums and what not that might be okay but if you're doing anything
commercial I wouldn't recommend it also with the HTMLArea component
I'd only deploy that in a controlled Intranet environment otherwise
you could be asking for trouble,

I did a while back right an interface to iSpell (or was it aSpell?
can't remember..) that piped input to and output from the windows
executable that I used to generate HTML from so the users could
correct their mistakes but abandoned that due to licensing problems.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it already, but JSpell HTML
(http://www.jspell.com) is really good.  Not free, though...

Check out OpenCMS (http://www.opencms.org) because it integrates 
HTMLArea very nicely, even with Mozilla support (in the version 6 
release, still in Alpha).
