You don't say so but I guess your using BBEdit Lite rather than BBEdit.
BBEdit 4.0's built in spell checker seems to cope just fine with HTML, i.e.
it will parse the document skipping over tags. Add to that all it's HTML
smarts + HTML and Perl syntax colouring and I now wonder how I ever managed
without it.
