G'day

Is there a spell check option and if so how is it accessed?

Sorry, can't have everything. There is no spell check currently in the Café.

If you have Microsoft Word (or equivalent), you can write your post in there and then after it is cleaned up copy it into your post area and submit it.

For large posts, I will often take it in the other direction to clean it up as quickly as possible. Doing it this way will help out our Grammar Hosts immeasurably! I want to thank you for thinking proactively on this subject.

I've just learned of a slick add-in to Internet Explorer called iespell. It can be downloaded for free at http://www.iespell.com

It adds a spell check feature that checks any open edit windows (while you are writing your message) and with a couple of clicks it will check what you wrote. It does not work on the finished page, just what you're writing, which should be just what you're looking for.

Yes, it works from within any form entry box before the message is posted. For example, I can spell check this message as I'm typing it. As soon as I hit "Submit Reply" it becomes part of the web page and can't be checked.
