Is there anyway we can include in the posting a spell checker ? or have I just not found it ?

There is no spell checker, but it can be arranged. Whats wrong with your spelling, looks fine

Not a major drama but you get used to running spell checker just to be sure to be sure . Be nice if it could be added- as long as it doesn't cause unnecessary overheads

And... we have a spell checker. Heres how to use it:



1) Click on "My Controls" at the top right of the forum.

2) On the left panel, under "Options" click "Board Settings"

3) At the bottom under "Posting Settings" choose "Rich Text Editor" instead of Standard Editor.



Now when you reply to any post you will see a few more options, including a button with "ABC" on it at the top right. Click on that and it will ask you to install a spell checker plugin, do so. After installation, the next time you use "ABC" it will spell check your posts!

Something must be wrong as I am unable to see the ABC button you refer to. Only change I have in the reply screen is a pulldown box on left side that shows numbers 1 - 7. everything else looks the same see attachment

Ah... just checked with 3 browser.



1) IE -> Works perfect

2) FireFox -> Works but no ABC button (strange, ill look into it later)

3) Opera -> Doesnt work at all.



So i guess you'll have to use IE to use spelling until i figure out why the button doesnt show up. =\
