[Booki-dev] Problems with spellchecker

OK, I've got it working.  The missing piece was installing aspell, as
Adam suggested.  I didn't catch this because aspell *is* installed on
my home computer, but I didn't install it at work.  When I did, and
gave all the PHP files <Location> tags in the virtual host the spell
checker plugin worked beautifully.

It is likely that aspell is not installed on the two Booki instances,
since my Booki had *exactly* the same issue before aspell was
installed.

I'd like to thank everyone who helped.
