Spellcheck

irishguy · 06-09-2005 7:13pm #1

Just wondering if it would be possible to include a spellchecker when posting threads like on gmail? I think its JavaScript based, it’s very fast and easy to use. It would be helpful and stop arguments when people have poor spelling.

Of course this doesnt apply to me :rolleyes:

I often thought that would be handy, usually what I do is copy my post into word first to run a quick check.

www.chiptalk.net have one on their forum. Very handy feature!

I think there is an extension for Firefox that does this.

I use the Google toolbar and I find it an excellent feature, If more people just used it maybe?

There's a Vbulletin upgrade that includes this I think.

I heard about one for IE a while back but not sure bout firefox. It would be just as handy if there was one to add onto the browser. Anybody know if there is one?

If you're gonna add an extension to firefox, you may as well add the google toolbar with the built in spell checker, but if you want a stand alone one, this may do the trick:

Yeah, but only if your using Linux!

Another nice feature would be if it could automatically permaban users that tried to use txt spk.

Yeah there's IESpell and the Firefox extension. And the Google toolbar has one too...

Hey,
Was in a net cafe recently and they had a spell check built into windows - that acted like Office's spell check - underlining misspelt words as u type them etc...

It even worked in MSN...

I never got the name of it - but badly need it - especially for MSN.
Anyone any ideas?

I have google toolbar etc.. but this only works for internet browser..

Thanks!
