491712 2006-10-15 17:53:00 I don't see the SUGGESTION BOX or whatever it was called at the fore of this area...so I will blatantly ask another silly question or even worse...make a silly statement:

Why...Oh why does this site render in HTML sometimes and other time not?
<OK, that was the question part...now the statement>

I would like a spell-checker here as I've got the FF Syndrome (Fat Fingers) and sometimes...just SOMETIMES might occasionally...not intentionally...make a slight spelling error. I swear it's just typos and not lack of appreciation of the King's/Queen's English, although I speak American and we got over that idea around 1776.

The missing "u's" and "ou" combinations is not a typo..that's the correct and economical way to spell things...just ask Benjamin Franklin. He was smart.:D

<donning the flame-proof undies...pushing my soapbox to the front of my 'puter right now...preparing to swing a chocky fish at challengers>:rolleyes:

491714 2006-10-15 18:59:00 Google toolbar has a spell checker in it. It only checks everything you have written not everything on the site. It's really good.

EDIT:
huh? I clicked edit to change stuff so why did it double post?!

I use WORDWEB - it's a great spell checker and works here and lots of other places that your normal spell checker doesn't. It is also a great dictionary. It's free.
I think I got mine off one of the PCWorld disks but I don't know which one. It's probably available on the Internet - just GOOGLE for it.
