WordPress spell check fix

Barry of Clearskys.net has found a fix for the spellcheck error. It was a problem with the headers sent by the script. Commenting the encoding header did the trick
//header('Content-Encoding: UTF-8');
the header is in the file rpc.php which is in wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/spellcheck

WordPress spell check error
83 years ago

I’ve been having this problem for the past couple of months with the spell checking in WordPress. An error window with a whole lotta gibberish in it pops up every time I try to do a spell check. This is the recorded error message from my error logs:
Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to ssl://www.google.com:443 (Unable to find the socket transport “ssl” – did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?)
I’ve done some searches on Google and the only possible solution that I found was to recompile PHP with support for CURL and openSSL. So I tried that but I still get an error message. Anyone got any ideas what’s wrong?
Laptop crash…

The notebook I am currently using (belonging to a friend on mine, since my pc still isn’t in working order, yet) has crashed! All my work, including the files for a project I am working on that’s due on FRIDAY, is on the notebook. I can’t load anything. Whenever I switch on the notebook it says “NTDETECT failed” and then it restarts. It was working fine 4 hours ago but…sigh. Anyways I will try to recover as many files as I can from the hard disk tomorrow using a Ubuntu Live CD before I try to repair the install. Hopefully it’ll all go well (*fingers crossed*)
