spell check

[kazitula]

suppose in an applet, I've one button n one text field, and I've also a file where 10 words has been stored, now if anyone wants to check is the written word is correctly spelled or not by pressing the button, then how can I do this?

Code:

//  <applet code="SpellCheck" width="300" height="200"></applet>
//  use: >appletviewer SpellCheck.java
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;;

public class SpellCheck extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
    JTextField textField;
    String[] words = new String[10];

    public void init() {
        // read file and store the 10 "words" in the words array.
        textField = new JTextField(16);
        textField.addActionListener(this);
        JPanel first = new JPanel();
        first.add(textField);
        JButton button = new JButton("check");
        button.addActionListener(this);
        JPanel last = new JPanel();
        last.add(button);
        getContentPane().add(first, BorderLayout.PAGE_START);
        getContentPane().add(last, BorderLayout.PAGE_END);
    }

    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        String text = textField.getText();
        System.out.println("text = " + text);
        checkSpelling(text);
    }

    private void checkSpelling(String s) {
        // Run through the words array and test the
        // variable "s" against each word in the list
        // that begins with the same first letter as
        // "s" has. Print the results of your test.
    }
}
