Spell check?

snorlax

would it be possible to get spell check on boards?

it might cut down on all the dodgy spelling which people are constantly giving out about!......

Use your word processor spell checker tbh.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

read the dictionary a few times, it should do wonders for your spelling.

dictionary.com might be a handy place to start.

Boards cant do verything for you. Sometimes you need to actually go find things out for yourselves.

I sure someone will post up a link for a FireFox extension that does spell checking. By contrast Microsoft charge for additional Dictionaries.

its not just for mine, its for everyone that uses boards, i think that text talk annoys people.

Yeah, but a spell checker won't get rid of that.

It's hassle to impliment, and tbh if you really cared you could use open office or ms office to spell check your entries.

If you cared. If you cared.

i don't think ill be doing that Simu, i just notice other members constantly pointing out each others spelling/ grammar. Also, i don't expect boards to do everything, but they might have a simple solution, and it could be a great for everyone on boards, but if it isnt that simple sure people can just stick with the alternatives!:)

Redshift

It's actally built into Vbulletin 3.5.0 which is in beta at the moment.

Spell Checker is a bad idea. If its done automatically. Because on another forum i frequent they decided to have words like der become there. Became very annoying when i wanted to talk about Mellissa Auf Der Maur. As it kept changin it for me
