| 265012 | 2004-08-24 20:00:00 | the spelling chequer is knot worken today. I noticed on another posting, well bugger me, I tell lies again, it worked this time, but on my last posting I spelt negative & negitive and they both went through, and then there was another word my word processor, spell checker picked up that the F1 did not find. It might intermittant. |

| 265013 | 2004-08-24 20:15:00 | It's now integrated into the telco's SMS spell checker.. :-) | paulw (1826) | ||
| 265014 | 2004-08-24 20:37:00 | Yes, but who compiles the spelling checker?????????? What can you expect with the level of education today? For 'basics' it is worse than when my Grandmother went to a working class school in the depths of Birmingham in the 1880s, and left at the age of 13, no kidding :) |

| 265015 | 2004-08-24 21:40:00 | It's about the most incompetent thing on this forum but it refuses to learn or improve in any way. It has been a naturalised Kiwi for over two years now but it still insists on spelling ....ise as ...ize, ...que as ...ck ....our as ...or, etc, and has no technical savvy at all. You would think that Jive would at the least have a British English version to get us close to comprehensible. But no, now it can't even understand itself, it's going psycho on us. I would happily give it counseling if that would help, assuming it is a text file stored on the data base, if someone wants to send it to me with some basic instructions. Cheers Murray P |

| 265021 | 2004-08-25 18:21:00 | Well, I'm gobsmacked. You say there's a spellcheck on this website? Can't say I've noticed it myself: certainly not in some of the posts.... Maybe it should be placed more conspicuously? |
