Spell Checker
Randy - Any chance of adding a spell checker. It could be set up so you click a button and it spells checks the message are before it is posted. I have seen this on some other boards (wish I could remember there though).Would be great for people like me whose spelling is horrible.

3) Feline/MEOW.
4) Canine/DOG too!
But Dcpremex in all seriousness... I am the biggest fracturer of spelling. F-T needs the program with the male nerd saying "Misselling" (it's called SpellChecker.)

But will it be American or Canadian English or both?
Honor or Honour? That is the question.
Aw heck I don't care as long as the heart of my postings get across.
Darn it...how do you do those big grins?

Hello everybody and thank you for your feedback.
To answer the question concerning a Spell Checker: Yes, we have plans for a Spell Checker in our future. We are currently in planning for a major change to the Bulletin Board system and have therefore halted tweaks of this nature until we have a new solution in place...or decide against it...whichever we decide. In either case we will have a Spell Checker, ( as well as various other new functionality ), in place sometime in the near future so stayed tuned and keep an eye out for it.

ThanX...
