OK, we all know that the spell checker here on EZ is non-existent. We got it. OK.

I asked some more familiar with message boards about this and I was given this link:

ieSpell (http://www.iespell.com/)

It's an add-on for Internet Explorer that's designed for things just like this, message boards, etc, you can read about it at the link above.

I just thought I'd throw the link out there for those of you looking for options. I know not everyone uses the spell checker but this one appears to be free (they do ask for donations if you like it) and it's an option. Feel free to check it out, or just ingroe ti! :lol

(ETA - I don't use Internet Explorer anymore so I don't know how well it works. Anyone who cares to try it out and post reviews, this is the place to do it! Thanks! )

And so the spell check options begin to come in. This is a good thing, I think. It'll be helpful in the days to come.

Thanks JJ and BooneWasABoar! :)

so no one else uses Word or their email to copy/paste then spell check? I'm usually pretty accurate, but when I'm in doubt about a word, it's quick and easy.

I'm not sure the spell checker could even guess what he was trying to say.

This may be a good post to move to the Help forum.

But if I was to use such technology. I would lose my well earned title as:

King Typos, Earl of Backspace

A king without a crown. An emperor without an empire. A lord without his minions. NEVER.

SpeLe Cheque thyne mourtal enemie. Eye kurse theei.

SpeLe Cheque thyne mourtal enemie. Eye kurse theei.Not even the best spell check function can correct improper use of the subjunctive.
