A PHP Pspell substitute for Google Spell Check XML API. Pspell is required in order to work on your server.

Why?

Google obviously shut down their Spell checking API (www.google.com/tbproxy/spell) on July 9th 2013, see here. This PHP class is a PHP Pspell substitute for Google Spell Check XML API using the same XML structure.

Usage

require_once 'spell-check-library.php';
$content = "";
$options = array(
	"lang"				=> 'en',
	"maxSuggestions"		=> 10,
	"customDict"			=> 0,
	"charset"			=> 'utf-8'
);
$factory = new SpellChecker($options);

$spell = $factory->create(trim("Ths is a tst"));

header('Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8');
echo $spell->toXML();

Echoes Google-style XML like this:

<spellresult error="0" clipped="0" charschecked="12">
    <c o="0" l="3" s="1">This Th's Thus Th HS</c>
    <c o="9" l="3" s="1">test tat ST St st</c>
</spellresult>

... which you can use with your existing spell checking script such as GoogieSpell that was expecting XML structured data back from Google.

Mad props to Sabin Iacob (m0n5t3r). Code basically from here, but I removed the Aspell and Google API parts and made it standalone-ready.
