Default Spell check additions
Can you imagine how many new words we all add to spell check additions each day. Words that are just commonplace for us MSers Spell check has just never heard of and I have to tell it to add it to my dictionary. I wish it would recognize all of your words also. OK, maybe I'm in a weird mood tonight since I'm back in the real world and not in pain.

which spell check are you using?

I use the one built in to Firefox when I'm online and it gives me some options to choose from, if it doesn't recognize a word or if I did miss-type it - and if I know I spelled it right , I just click "add to dictionary".

I'm using Firefox Jo*Mar, but when I checked I couldn't find a spell check anywhere!

I looked in Tools and I looked in Options, to no avail. Is there somewhere else I should look, or is it an Add-on that I have to download myself.

for Firefox - spell check

Go to Tools - Options - Advanced - General tab - and then in the browsing center section - check the box for - check my spelling as I type.

Never use the stuff....I'm an excellent speller. The only time I thought I misspelled something, I was wrong...

You are so right - we have a whole different spelling world than the rest!!

I never use spell check for NT. I know no one here judges me on my horrible spelling and awful grammer!! On another site I go to I make sure I spell things correctly and use correct grammar - otherwise OMG they get all uppity about incorrect use of words/spelling. I don't add words to my dictionary, I just hit ignore. Too lazy to add!!
