Could we get a spell check for these text fields? I hate having to decipher people's messages and I'm a freak about typo's. Of course people could just reread what they wrote, but we all know how lazy people are.

when Firefox 2.0 comes out it has a built in spell check, but i do agree loads of people here have crap english/are really lazy.

ieSpell - A Spell Checker for Internet Explorer
Latest version - v2.2.0 (build 647) - 1.94MB - released 27th March 2006
http://www.iespell.com/download.php



FREE SPELL.......... FreeSpell is a spell checker for any and all Windows applications. You can use it in Eudora, in Microsoft Outlook, Firefox, Visual C++, and even in Windows Explorer when renaming files (though it's a little tricky to do that). In fact, anything that supports the clipboard supports FreeSpell, and all it takes is a hotkey to invoke it. Just as important, FreeSpell is based upon the Aspell engine, which means it offers the best spell checker around for people with weak spelling skills (as well for people who just need a quick proofread). Aspell is full featured as well, with a large default dictionary, and custom dictionary support.....(free).....GO THERE!

FreeSpell 4.2 is now available. It features improved compatibility with Firefox/Thunderbird/Mozilla, and other user-interface improvements. Also available in the same download is a demo version of ProSpell, which provides a modern mouse/GUI interface instead of the character-mode interface used by FreeSpell.

Haha, yeah, thanks for the links. I know I'm not perfect so I double check my spelling in word/google. I'll check out the IE add-on, sounds helpful.

What I meant though was for an afterdawn built in spell check for everyone, not just the ones considerate enough to provide their own means of spelling check. Just a suggestion, I just think it's a lot easier to help someone when they are speaking properly.

Why not use microsoft word. Most ofthe times it picks up the spelling and you could just right click on the word to get the right spelling. After finished typing just copy it then paste it on the "reply post".
