I don't know if this works on all computers
But if you highlight all of the words and press control and then click your mouse a little option list will pop up
Go down to spelling and then click check spelling.
It works for me but everytime you find a word miss-spelled you have to go back and do it again
And to find the correct spelling you just click the highlighted word and control and it will give you the correct spelling

I tried it, No luck. What operating system do you have? Do you have some kind of ad-on program?

I got this in an email I guess spelling isn't as important as I thought.


Cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae.

The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it whotuit a pboerlm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!

Just a suggestion. You could type up your posts in Word and then just cut and paste it, of course after it gets spell checked. I know most of the replies are short but I have done this before when making lengthy, detailed reports and articles.
Also, there is always going back to school.#-o

I will, eventually, get spell check added to everything on the site, forum included.

From a members point of view, the site might look complete, but it isn't. It's actually only about 75% done, and that's just to get everything you currently see working at 100%. Then, when that is done, I have almost as much code to write, if not more, to get the next phase of the site online. When that happens...well... shock and awe baby, shock and awe.
