Spell check...
Is there a spellcheck feature available when you are creating your messages?
And if there is... just how does it work??

Re: Spell check...
Yep, but… 'how'? Not really a feature, just a thing built into most browsers I thought?
Happens automatically for me whenever typing in any website.

Yes, it's a browser feature.

Re: Spell check...
On every other website, other than this one when I am in quick reply... Chrome does a spell check for me...
I miss it terribly here... but I guess it's a script thing or something.

Re: Spell check...
Agree, it would be very helpful. Especially for people like me for whom English isn't native language.

Re: Spell check...
Thanks for the replies.
I found out the auto spell check works on my iPad when I post but not when I login here on my laptop (but I can get it to work when I visit other places on my laptop though). Must be something to do with Firefox or something like that and this site, I guess. I am not that computer savy to figure out how to get spell check to work with that sort of thing so I'll have to work around it somehow. I am a pretty fair speller but sometimes things do get tangled (I'm blaming it on old age!!).
