Plugin spellchecker find wrong words with french accents - Ticket #120 Continued

[guest]

Hello, I'm using Xinha 0.95 with the SpellChecker plugin in a web based CMS called Bricolage. Bricolage uses UTF-8 as default encoding for all it's HTML pages. My Linux install has the UTF-8 set, too. When spellckecking Spanish texts, words get truncated before special characters (accented wovels mainly). I've noticed the same problem addressed in a previous ticket (#120). A solution was provided an implemented. The problem is that I still experience this problem with recent versions of Xinha. I've set the conversion to entities to "false", but the script still converts utf-characters to HTML-entities. I think the offending lines are in the if-block that applies the conversion in "spell-check-logic.php". The "!isset($_REQUESTutf8_to_entitis?)" evaluates always to true, and the conversion is being carried out by default.

Spell checking probably needs a rewrite.
