Spel chek?? wahts that?

YES! I agree! I am the worlds worst speller and fast typer. My fingers and brain don't always match up. If I ever post anything, I use word and then copy and paste it over. Although easy, it can be a process sometimes.

We're probably not going to delve into spell checking (never say never, but probably not), mainly because there's plenty of better ways to do it.

Firefox and Safari support web form spell checking out of the box and there are even add-ons for Internet Explorer that'll accomplish the same thing (here's one example).

On a personal level (being a web developer), I'd recommend staying away from IE as much as possible, both for security reasons, web-rendering issues (as much as a third of all web design time is spent fixing things in IE) and the extra features you get from Firefox or Safari (like spell check).

Wow, people are still using browsers without built-in spellcheck? Who knew?
