Soothing Shrimp Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Is there a way to turn on a spell checker when replying to or making a post? I'm kinda notorious for hitting teh occasional wrong key as my brain tends to think ahead of my fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OblongShrimp Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 IP board doesn't have a built in spell check. The reason for this is your internet browser has a spellcheck built into it already. When I spell things wrong it will either autocorrect it for me like or will underline the misspelt word with the red squiggly. If I right click on a misspelt word it gives me possible corrections. I am using internet explorer on this computer and Firefox on my computer at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using Firefox as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chibikaie Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Maybe check your settings? I'm pretty sure I remember turning spellcheck off on one of my browsers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
