One of the hardest things for me to find coherent information on has been how to set up spell checking for multi-line TextBoxes on ASP.NET forms. In my search, I came across Hunspell, an open source spell checker that is widely used in applications such as OpenOffice.
To set up Hunspell for use in your ASP.NET Web site, you will need to complete these steps. Download the most recent version (currently 1.3.2) from the Hunspell download page and extract the archive file.
- Place the hunspellx64.dll and/or hunspellx86.dll (depending on 32- or 64-bit IIS process), NHunspell.dll, and language-appropriate dictionary files (for English – en_US.aff, en_US.dic, and hyph_en_US.dic) into the “bin” folder of your Web site.
- Create the SpellCheckerService Web Service.
Create a folder under the root named WebServices and add SpellCheckerService.asmx:
<%@ WebService Language="VB" CodeBehind="~/App_Code/SpellCheckerService.vb" %>
In the App_Code folder, add SpellCheckerService.vb:
Imports NHunspell
Imports System
Imports System.Collections
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.Script.Services
Imports System.Web.Services
Imports System.Web.Services.Protocols
' To allow this Web Service to be called from script, using ASP.NET AJAX, uncomment the following line.
<System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService()> _
<WebService(Namespace:="http://tempuri.org/")> _
<WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo:=WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)> _
<Global.Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.DesignerGenerated()> _
Public Class SpellCheckerService
Inherits System.Web.Services.WebService
<WebMethod()> _
<ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat:=ResponseFormat.Json)> _
Public Function CheckSpelling(words As List(Of String)) As Dictionary(Of String, List(Of String))
Dim results As Dictionary(Of String, List(Of String)) = New Dictionary(Of String, List(Of String))
Dim spellEngine As SpellEngine = CType(Application("SpellEngine"), SpellEngine)
'Check spelling of each word that has been passed to the method
For Each word As String In words
Dim correct As Boolean = spellEngine("en").Spell(word)
'If the word is spelled incorrectly, add it to the list of words to be
'returned along with suggestions
If Not correct Then
Dim suggestions As List(Of String) = spellEngine("en").Suggest(word)
suggestions.Sort()
results.Add(word, suggestions)
End If
Next
Return results
End Function
End Class
- Put the spellchecker.css file into a folder called css directly under the root and put this line into the head section of the markup file (for the page where the TextBox to be spell-checked is):
<link href="~/css/SpellChecker.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"/>
- Place the jQuery files from the Hunspell download into a folder called js under the root and insert this JavaScript into the head section of your markup. For my folder names to work, minor changes were necessary for the jquery.spellcheker.js and jquery.spelldialog.js files, so the text of those files (as modified by me) will be included at the bottom of this post.

- Next to the TextBox (I’ll call it TextBox1 here) that you want to have associated with the spell checker, place a Button (called Button1 here). In your code-behind, enter this into the Page.Load event:
Button1.Attributes.Add("OnClick", "spellCheckTextArea('#" &""" TextBox1.ClientID &""" "');return false;")
And that’s it.
Code for the jQuery files is below!

// SpellCheck object
//
// This file is sourced on web pages that have a textarea object to evaluate
// for spelling. It includes the implementation for the SpellCheck object.

/**
* A SpellCheck object is created with one or more <i>textObjects</i>
* and a callback which is invoked once the checking has been completed.
*
* Each textObject must minimally include a text property which will reflect
* the corrected text when the callback is invoked.
*
* eg.
* textObjects = [{text: $textarea.val()}, ...]
*
* Each textObject can additionally include other properties such as contentType
* for use by the spellchecking program and identifying info to be picked up
* when the spellcheck is complete.
*
* See demo for examples.
*
* SpellCheck must be <i>configure</i>d with a view and a remote
* spellcheck handler.
*
* ExampleView = function() {
* //called when the SpellCheck is opened
* this.open = function() {};
*
* //called each time a remote spellcheck is about to start
* //can be used to display loading message
* this.checkingStarted = function(textObject) {}
*
* //invoked each time the position context has changed with
* //the current position <i>SpellCheck.Context</i> object.
* this.update = function(context, enableUndo, skipEnabled) {}
*
* }
*
* The remote check handler is expected to be a function that accepts a textObject
* and a callback. The callback should be invoked with a hash of misspelled words
* once the remote check has returned. The misspelled words hash should be made
* up of 'misspelledword' => ['list', 'of', 'suggestions'] pairs.
*
* ex. from the JQuery implementation
*
* var remoteCheckHandler = function(textObject, callback) {
* jQuery.post(options.serverScriptURL, { 'text' : textObject.text }, function(result) {
* callback(result);
* }, 'json');
* };
