Spell Checker

[Island-Ho]

As I read several of the threads earlier, I began to wonder what happened to the spell checker. Some of the posts could certainly use a strong parsing! :( I know I could and would use it. Is the spell checker an option that is available on the new format?

There is a thread a little way down about this. Click here (http://www.winnipesaukee.com/forums/showthread.php?t=498) to go right to it.

There is also information in the FAQ under "Reading and Posting Messages".

I also would like to have spell check, but I use Netscape instead of I.E.. But, I have found a shortcut way to check without using I.E..

My mail program has an icon in the toolbar at the bottom of my screen. If I want to check a word or words, or even an entire post, I just highlight the word or text and click copy. Then I drop down to the toolbar and click the mail icon. Then I select compose and a blank composition screen displays. I paste the text and then click the ABC icon. Any words that are wrong will show an option for changing or correction. Then, after correcting the word, or the entire text, I highlight and copy again and then get out of the mail program. Once returned to the forum, my original message is still highlighted. Now I click BACKSPACE and the entire original post is cleared. Now, I just paste and the corrected text appears on the post screen. It might seem a little complicated, but it is really not. And, it is fast. I remember the old spell check on the old forum and it was slow.
