Checking spelling


    You can check the spelling of a single page or an entire site. If you are checking a site, GoLive opens each page that contains a questionable word and closes each page when you're done checking it. GoLive automatically ignores the HTML when checking spelling.

    When GoLive questions the spelling of a word, you can add the word to a personal dictionary and it will be recognized as correct in the future. You can create a personal dictionary for each language that you have installed.

    Note: To use additional languages, you must install them using the custom install option on the GoLive CD.

To check the spelling in a page or site:

  1. Select the Layout Editor tab, Source tab, or the site window.
  2. Choose Edit > Check Spelling.
  3. Set spelling checker options:
    • Choose a spelling checker language from the Language menu.
    • Select From Top to start checking at the top of an open page rather than at the insertion point.
    • Expand More Options and specify conditions for the search, such as to ignore numbers.
  4. To check the spelling in multiple files, select Site and choose a list of site files from the pop-up menu, or click Add Files and create a custom list.
  5. Click Start.
  6. GoLive displays a suggestion for the first questionable word in the text box.

    • Edit the suggestion in the text box and then click Change.
  8. To accept the questionable word, do one of the following:
    • Click Ignore to allow a single occurrence of the word.
    • Click Ignore All to allow the questionable word for the current session. GoLive ignores all occurrences of the word in the page or site.
    • Click Learn to add the questionable word to your personal dictionary. GoLive recognizes the word as correct in the future.
  9. Click Delete to delete a questionable word from the page.
