This feature was accepted 9/2/2005: Spell check, yes. Grammar, no.
This feature was completed 9/2/2005: I enabled the SPELLECHECK button as the last button on all of the textboxes. You will probably need to force-reload (hold down control and press F5) to see the button.

Wouldn't it be cool to have a Spell check feature, like the one used in Microsoft Word, oubviously this would be a difficult undertaking and would probably be impossible, if I dont miss my guess.  But wouldn't it be cool?  This is a tru Feature WISHING well... Its more of a wish then a question...

This is actually pretty easy to do. The rich text box has that button built in, I will enable it. To use it, you will need to download a component called iespell. I would recommend downloading that anyway, it lets you click on any textbox and say CHECK SPELLING.

Click on the button, and it should prompt you to download ieSpell. I already have it installed, so it just brings up the Check Spelling box. It's pretty cool, it helps my seplling. Obviously though I'm too lazy to use it half the time.

Hopefully it'll help those who take time to compose their writing ...
