Spell Checker

Please can we have a spell checker :?:

My browser has one built in. I don't see the point of slowing the site down with an extra feature you can install client side instead.

Its good when i use the apple that has one built in, but can you get one for IE 7?

There are various sites that have spell checking facilities, such as http://www.spellcheck.net.

Why not use something like Word, or as Geoff does, use a browser with spell checking built in.

BTW, what browser do you use?

IE 7 For Windows & Firefox For Mac & Linux

Is it really that hard to either just stop and think about your spelling, or JFGI?

First result looks like it will do the job just fine...

IE7 Pro isn't bad, if I remember rightly they've added a Spell Checker.

Other than that, check your own spelling! :P

well i am hopeless at it

Fair enough, perhaps IE7 Pro Addon then. :)

If you're that bothered why not just type it out in a word processor first and then copy and paste it back :) Far easier.

OR get a linux installation running gnome and it'll spell check it for you automatically (or so i've noticed) :)

Well as everyone knows my spelling/grammer is not great but I use firefox plugin and word to help.

Also listen to following podcasts...

Also write, write and write as writing can improve if you work at it. When you have written and followed steps in the mentioned podcasts. Get someone to check it and then work out where you made mistakes.

I can agree with russdev there. Writing will improve your grammar and spelling. Being a pedant also helps, of course.

The assignments you will have to do at uni / college or wherever you go next, if education is your path of choice, will also help.

IE7 is pants, why not use firefox on all platforms? It has that built in spellchecker goodness ;)

I have a spell checker in IE7 standard not Pro, its called ieSpell
