Title: Using a spell checker ......
Post by Oldfeller--FSO on 03/16/23 at 13:38:32

The site used to display instant highlighted suggestions for common mispellings. This was useful, but I suspect it came from my use of the Google Chrome browser rather than from the site.

Firefox doesn't seem to offer this site a automatic spell checking service.

We need something to keep things from getting all skinko'd up around here.

I find more and more gibberish is making it into my own posts ...... I need a spell check function.

this is a test .....

skinko

dummmass

stuupid

shiteheadfred

Is a skinko really a type of lizard? Must be because it skates past the spell checker that I just managed to turned on.

No, it says it is a skin care company.

It also accepted the proper name shiteheadfred as properly spelled

::) ::)

One of my teachers told me not to worry about spelling since there would be autocorrect. And for that I am eternally grapefruit. ;D

I'm using Firefox 111 on Windows 10 and it does automagic spell checking. I know this is true because automagic gets the red squiggles under it like it's supposed to. Go to Settings -> General -> Language and make the box that says "Check your spelling as you type" is checked.
