Hi Guys / Dolls :)

If I installed a spell checker, would it be much use?
Just getting some feedback before spending to much time on it.

Tommy,
I did a spell check on a post when this new site first came up. It asked if I wanted to download...ispell or something like that...I did and it works pretty good.
Not being a putor geek, I don;t know if everybody has this option or if it's an IE thing.
I use it, sometimes not often enough right Sludge? :)

Ok, enough surfing, I gotta go diving! See y'all at Little River in 30 mins...or not :orcass

Mike,
Put some pants on dude! Geez! :smt079

Tommy,
I have the e-spell option too. You know more about this stuff than me though. Is the option you're looking in an inline feature that wouldn't require download by the user?

Thanks!
Shirley

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

I know I know...get a job and quit playing on the internet or my eyes will stick this way and my children will be born wearing cowboy boots. :diver

Well I'm glad I wasen't the only one who tried to stop reading it but couldn't. :D

I agree spell checker is a good idea but only if people actually use it.

Reason I was asking;
Most people have that built into their browsers -
I use Firefox so was not really sure about IE.

Since we're on the subject of Firefox :)
This is one that really comes in handy if you spend a lot of time on forums
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/491

Anyway, back on track--Guessing it would not be worth the time to install a built in spell checker-
