Are there any mods out there? Kiwi, you must be on line.....
Please can you bring spell check into the all the various underline, insert table etc options that you have. I continually made a complete dcik of myself with dodgy spelling and I am worried that I have same manual dexterity and conrol over my fingers and thumbs as exhibited by Nikki Walker every time he pulls on a Scotland top.

Can you not look to get a browser with a spellchecker?

If you make a mistake why don't you just edit your post? That's what I do.

Spellcheck? That sounds like a technical question. I'll ask.

If you have a browser like Google Chrome, it automatically spell checks for you, tis what I use.

Like other's have said though you can always edit a post as soon as you spot a mistake though Smile

If you use Firefox or Google Chrome (instead of Windows Internet Explorer) as your internet browser, it will automatically underline any spelling mistakes in red.

If you double click a highlighted word and right click the mouse, it will bring up the suggested alternatives.
I use Firefox and it's a great tool.

One thing though, the default spelling is USA English, you will need to change it to the UK dictionary if you want the UK spelling versions.

Both browsers I use have it as standard. Safari and Firefox (I think Firefox has it...)

I like the fact that my Firefox spell check doesn't recognise the word "Facebook" whilst writing on said website. It just tickles me.

Yes, that's exactly what I was going to say. I use Google chrome, It's a lot faster than Internet Explorer anyway and underlines any spelling mistakes I make so I don;t look like a lemon when I try and post!

You'd have to look pretty hard these days to find a browser that doesn't have a spell checker.

Maybe the problem is between keyboard and chair?
