Is there a way to get a built in spell checker on the site? Not just for the forums, but for the Wiki's and stuff, too? I have no idea what that would entail or if it's worth the work you'd have to put in, I'm just curious.

I know that FireFox has it's own spell check, but some people don't want to use FireFox.

With Firefox having a built in spell checker, there's no incentive for us to even consider it.

Besides, do you really want us to do that? It'd likely be andy or I who implement such a thing and that would mean you would be stuck spelling things all Canadian like with extra u's.

I think you've picked up Nobby's vote for this feature.

Oh hell no, drives me nuts already to want to fix the "s" where I know it should be a "z"

I'd prob explode if we had extra "u" all over the place!


Pig latin, let me think on that and get back to you Angsty.

Smiley: lol

I understand, just a thought. I can't download FireFox here at work, so I'm constantly copying and pasting things into my email just for a spell check. Smiley: grin

Thanks!

You could get a USB key with Firefox loaded on it.

That could help!
