Something like this?

http://spelchek.com/

If so, I can include it when we switch to VBulletin 3.0.

Spell checkers are all well and good, but they don't tell you if you've used a word out of context, there in place of their for example. From the other post here (http://www.colorado4x4.org/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=7;t=004276) that seems to have generated this post, it looks to me like a spell checker will be useless.

Like I said in the other post, most people don't really care about proper spelling and grammar. I also don't believe there is any way to make them care about it.

I usually proof read my posts before sending them. The reason I do this is because I do believe that poor spelling and grammar are a negative reflection on the writer. I believe that most people who really care do something similar. Others will continue to do as they do without any care whatsoever.

I think it's funny that spelchek.com is spelled wrong. tongue.gif

It may not get used by those who don't care, but it would be a useful tool for those that do. I'd like to see it become a reality.
