Aspell is deprecated in favor of Pspell in PHP so
using it is a bad idea. But you can do this to
get Pspell going:
a) On either the JTL box or on some other one
with the same operating system, get the php
source and get ready to compile.
http://www.php.net/downloads
b) Be sure the appropriate libraries are available
as per the instructions found here:
http://www.php.net/pspell
c) Configure PHP like so:
./configure --with-apxs --with-pspell=shared
d) Then build it:
make
e) This will then create the module which will
exist in:
yourphpsourcedir/modules/pspell.so
f) Copy this file somewhere on your web server and
in the php script load it with dl() like so:
dl('pspell.so');
Easier said then done I know but the above is a
possibility ;) You may want to ask them if they
could create this .so so that clients can load
it dynamically, that would be ideal.
