    Re: spell check

    There was one on the last forum.
    I can add one if it's required.
    Wasn't sure how many people used judging by the level of spelling and grammar we see!!!
    Forum help and advice needed?

    Change of tack on this one as the spell add-on to vBulletin vbSpell seems to be quite buggy and I don't really want to use it.
    And it researching it I've found what I think is a better solution.

    The web browsers nowadays have the option to have built in spell checkers.
    So I think that's a much more sensible way to go.

    Firefox 2 has a built in spell checker all you need to do is to install the British English Dictionary. Available here... http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozi...9-fx+zm+tb.xpi
    When installed it will underline words in red that it doesn't understand, Word style, and then right clicking gives you options such as to learn the word.

    Internet Explorer 7 - IESpell http://www.iespell.com/download.php You right click to check your spelling rather than it doing it as you type.

    If anyone knows of any other options then please post them up here.
