Your wish is my command. Notice the "SpellCheck" button next to the 'Submit Reply' and "Preview Post" buttons when you are creating a responce to an existing post. This may or may not work so well. . . we'll try it for a while and see if people have problems with it. I have only enabled this for when you are creating a responce to an existing post, NOT on new posts and NOT on editing existing posts. If it does not seem to cause problems, then I will add it elsewhere.

If this does not work for you, please let me know what OS and what browser you are using. thanks. :D

I can only get the spell checker to work in Internet Explorer. It does not seem to work with Firefox or Mozilla. Can someone else confirm this for me? Thanks.

I use Internet Explorer. I've not seen any real problems with the spell checker and for me, it is a help....

Do we have enough history on it that it can be rolled out for use in new posts too?

In His joy, Old Ent

thanks for reminding me about this. I've added the checker to the 'new post' and 'edit post' pages. :)
