Spell Checker added to board


Recommended Posts

In the interests of raising the literacy level of the posts on the board :D , I have installed an English language spellchecker on the board software. You can see it when you open a reply box as shown in the picture below. Please don't complain if it is American or English spelling...I don't have a clue what's in the dictionary it uses to check.

Any problems, please post them under this topic.

Just testing - colour

 

Maybe I ain't using it correctly, but it just seems to offer suggestions and doesn't actually correct the spelling for you? It did come up with both the British and American spelling of colour but totally failed to identify that I had deliberately misspelled testing. (spelling of the test words corrected manually)

 

I have a spell checker on Firefox, which seems to be more user friendly so I'll stick to it.

It corrects the text as it finds the errors after you click the button named CORRECT.

See the attached screenshots.

 

This is my initial reply before hitting the spell check button...

Spell check finds the first error...I chose the correct spelling and clicked CORRECT. It changed the text of the message.

Proceeding to the second error, once again, choose correct spelling and click CORRECT.

The final resulting message after no more errors found

So, Eneukman, what was it you did?
