Russethouse Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 There is no spell check at present, as previously mentioned I use http://www.iespell.com which does the same job and is a small free download.Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I believe there is a spell check option available with this forum, but as it is American English only the developers have disabled it. I think they are looking at the possibility of providing a British alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you can change it from USA English to UK English.and it is very fast. Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Glad it helped Baz, it's a tip I picked up here a few years ago [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Yes, I use it too. Anybody who, like me, tried an earlier version and didn't really get on with it should have a go with the current version. The only snag is that it only works with Internet Explorer, and for me is a good reason for staying with that rather than changing to one of the supposedly 'better' browsers. I have always been a bit wary of spell checkers, since I worked on a UK boating magazine, in the 1980s in the comparatively early days of using word processors in the publishing industry, and the spell checker in use at that time (a program called Websters which was rightly moved to the recycle bin many years ago) insisted on replacing 'motorboating' with 'masturbating'. Knowing a lot of the readers though, it probably wasn't too far off the mark. Interestingly, iespell still offers that as one of the options [:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
