Could you install a spellcheck please?

[Revel]

Sometimes I get to carried away with typing,or I'm not concentrating,and mis spell some of the words,is it possible to have a spell checker that pops up when you make a mistake?

[Mr Veritas]

We have asked for this before Revel,
All to no avail.
I suppose once we get a functioning AB, it might be part of the package?
Don't hold your breath though!

[wolf63]

I have a Google toolbar with spellcheck on it.

[tamborine]

dnt go thar....perfik spilng is 4 th nans

[ummmm]

I use Chrome...that has a built in spell checker.

[carlton23]

Download the google bar if you haven`t already and look for the ABC Check and when you have finished your letter click on it to find out your spelling errors and then click each one to correct, then click ABC again to switch it off. Okey dokey?

Check your spelling before submitting, you don't need a spell-checker.

[wolf63]

Society - what if, like me, your spelling is 'okay' but not 'great'? I struggle with words with double letters in them i.e. accross and across. For that spell-check is great.

Perfect spelling, grammar, punctuation etc is for the elderly women, particularly; keen avid readers. Reading is the best way to improve your english. 'However' (I luv howevers ;) ) any class of 8y olds has girls happily reading while boys are 'biting the bit' for playtime & football.

Text speke brings us ALL to same level....that has to be g8!

In lerning werds dhei kannot spel

lol - oi loiks dat...scotman ;)

But - I dont blame bad spellers; its the curriculum at fault and bad teaching.

[vivandorron]

I do try to get my spelling correct, with the help of Viv, otherwise it could prove to be atroshious!!

Anyway, what does it matter if us Abers know what you mean.
