Annarchy Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I am glad you asked. I have searched our providers information, here is the answer: Q: Spell Checking - Supported ? A: Every modern browser has spell check built in, and it is supported in the editor, yes. We do not offer a custom or alternative spell checker (mostly because there's no need). Also, if you are using Firefox, highlight a word and right click on it and make sure "check spelling" is checked, you may need to set the language. Quote Link to comment
Gunplumber Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 I am using firefox and this is the only website for which my spellcheck doesn't work Quote Link to comment

Annarchy Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Okey Dokey, here with my PC. I am definately spoiled with my Mac. Miz-spel'n... Internet Explorer 8: Highlight the word and right click on it. Choose "Check Spelling". (You will also have the option to look up the definition.) Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Firefox 17.0.1: Miz spel'n Highlight the word and right click on it. Make sure the "Check Spelling" is check marked, then, move your mouse over "Languages" and choose "English". (Or add a dictionary, if you want to.) Then, anytme u miz spel wrds, itll shew.

Gunplumber Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 What I think you are missing is that my spell check works just fine on every other website. Just not this one. What word is mispelled in this sentence? Hmm. That's weird, I went and clicked on language = English again and now the red line appears. That's weird. Well, I gess it werks four now.

Mt_Rider Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Yep! Spel <-------tryed agin! I just get the normal range of options that I typed before. [undo, copy, delete, etc] MtRider Quote Link to comment
Mt_Rider Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Wait...I just read your PM so lemme try that.... Top of the screen.....which screen? All I have besides a search box by pctools are three icons: house/ star/ wheel cog.... Star is Favorites House is home Wheel cog is some tool things but nothing shows up about spelling. No 'edit' at all. I did find that I'm Windows Internet Explorer 9 It changed within the past year, I think. I'm still lost. Thanks Annarchy MtRider Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I did find that I'm Windows Internet Explorer 9 Here is what I have found regarding Internet Explorer 9: Internet Explorer 9 is big improvement over Internet Explorer 8 but it is still the only modern browser that does not include spell check as a native feature. The first option has been the unofficial Internet Explorer spell check add-on for years known as IE Spell. This free add-on allows you to check the spelling of any text box by right clicking and selecting Check Spelling. My new favorite spell check add-on for Internet Explorer 9 is called Speckie. This free add-on adds the familiar red squiggly line under misspelled words....
