Ive seen spell checker as an option on other forums. Have you guys entertained this idea for FG at all ?

Good idea Nomad....actually, you've just reminded me that Randall use to have problems with his spellchecker...he hasn't been around lately...hope he's OK.

Re: spell checker

spellcheck is already available. if you go to 'my settings', 'my options', 'miscellaneous options', you may choose between three text editors

basic
enhanced
WYSIWYG

the enhanced and WYSIWYG editors both have spellcheck.

I'm in enhanced, and I can see no spellchecker, and I have looked at all the options I can detect around this edit window. That's not a moan, it's a puzzle.

upper righthand corner. far right is the font size tool. nearer right is the spell check, with the 'ABC' and a checkmark.

i presume so. i just tried it and got the popup to download it. we definitely do not host or popup spyware or adware of any kind, so it's safe.

i've never used spellcheck before, so this was new to me.

My apologies, I can't see it but I have rather minimised the look of ForumGarden - and I'm in Firefox. No ABC, anyway. No Internet Explorer to compare with, either. I'll wait a few days and try on another computer.

you're right, i just checked in firefox, no spellcheck thingie. apparently because the spellcheck thingie is an IE plugin of sorts. that's a shame, since there's server-side spellcheck in squirrelmail for example that doesn't require any such stuff. i'll do some research when i get some time.

Re: spell checker

well I guess I'd better go download it, since my spelling is awful.

do you think we can get a grammer check.

just kidding.
