Spell Check

Post by Fan_In_NY »

Is there anyway we can get some sort of spell check on here. I feel like an idiot when I reread some of my posts and i see that I spelled like a 3rd grader. I dont have Mozilla at work which I know can spell check for me at all times, so a nice little button that I can hit to know what is spelled wrong with some suggestions would be great. Thanks!

The last time I checked there was a spell check mod however it embedded several ads. That being said, I'll take a look once I get back from vacation.

Thanks, but vacation?!? When the cat's away the mice will play... or something like that.

Hey Fan, just get the googletoolbar for your browser. It auto-highlights misspelled text, just like in word. You just have to click the "Check" box when something is underlined, click on the word, and select a popular option.

You can also use the Firefox browser...it has a spell checker built in and will underline misspelled words for you
