This update reverts use of the <a> tag for displaying fontawesome icons in the editor, which although improved selection of fonts in the editor, prevented fonts from being inside other link elements.
Download and Information

This update adds a Spellcheck option and adds GPT 4 Turbo as a Model option.
Spellcheck content using ChatGPT
Enabling the Spellcheck option in the parameters changes the Spellcheck button into a context-sensitive spellcheck using ChatGPT. This tool not only checks spelling but also understands the context of the text, supporting multiple languages seamlessly.
Click the Spellcheck button to perform the spellcheck. Once the spellcheck is complete, words marked as misspelled can be corrected by clicking on each marked word and selecting the suggested correction. Click Ignore Word to accept the word as spelled.
This plugin requires access to the ChatGPT OpenAI API - https://openai.com/chatgpt.
Download and Installation

This updates fixes a few recent issues with browser extensions, specifically Grammarly and various Adblockers, adds new Column insert options, merging of table cells when pasting table content, and includes a few other fixes and enhancments.
Grammarly extension conflict
Users have reported Chrome and Edge browsers crashing when attempting to access the right-click Context Menu in the editor. After some investigation the Grammarly browser extension was discovered as the cause and eventually the (bizarre) reason for the crash was found and fixed.
Adblocker update hides editor window
Over the weekend a number of users reported that the editor content window was no longer visible. This was found to be caused by an update to various Adblocker browser extensions, which has now been fixed.
New Column Insert options
The Add Column button now includes a drop-down menu with 2 new options: Add Column Before - which insert a new column before the current one - and Add Column After - which inserts a new column after the current one.
Merge Table cells on Pasting a Table
Pasting a table into an existing table will add the new table cells to the existing table. Existing cells will be replaced with the new cells starting from the cell in which the new content is pasted.

This updates adds double-click instant insert to the File Browser, Image Manager etc., fixes a few issues with text selection and the Cut action on Android and iOS and fixes a few bugs and issues reported since the last update.
Double-click Insert
Double-clicking a file name in the File Browser, Image Manager, Media Manager, etc., now instantly selects and inserts the file into the editor, eliminating the need for additional actions. While this method skips the setting of attributes or options, it offers a straightforward way to insert images, videos, or file links with a single action.
Android and iOS selection fixes
While addressing a text selection bug on Android and iOS, we found it was triggered by the Context Menu activating on double-tap. Consequently, due to its limited utility on touch devices, the Context Menu has now been disabled on these platforms. Additionally, we've resolved an issue on Android and iOS where text was copied but not deleted when using the Cut action.
iPadOS Detection Issues
With the selection bug on Android and iOS, as well as a PDF display issue in JCE MediaBox, we discovered that iPadOS has dropped the "ipad" reference in its User-Agent string which helps websites identify the browser and operating system. To circumvent this, we implemented an additional JavaScript method within the Editor and MediaBox. However, this workaround is not viable on the server side with PHP, preventing the detection of iPadOS for determining the appropriate Editor Profile based on the Device option. Consequently, Editor Profiles designated for Tablet or both Tablet and Phone will not function as expected on Apple iPad devices.
