It does highlight the whole word, but it doesn't change the highlighted word. Perhaps it is because I'm from holland (I did try english text, though). Would be nice to be able to change the Google URL in a config file, but I don't see it listed in package settings.

Is this project discontinued?

This does still work for me, provided the word I'm trying to correct is actually spelt wrong! For correctly spelled words it replaces the word with "My Account".

If you want to change the URL used to check spelling then just look inside the package contents for the 'google-spell-check.py' file and replace the URL with whatever you like. (for reference it's currently using http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=)

The Spell check API seems to have closed. Calls just renders a 404 now.
