Following Mike's query about spellcheck yesterday I've been looking at its addition to your replies box, but can you check this for me first

after you've composed a reply/topic when you right click are you getting this option?

If using Firefox there's an automatic spellcheck Add-on you can download. Simply search Add-on Manager for British.

I'm using safari and it seems to want to spellcheck me as I go. Mostly it's right but sometimes it's a right pain in the painful place

Forgo to right click, here gooes?

I did spell this all wrong, right clicked. It looked similar, moved cursor to spell check bit, it says English (American), tried to change it, went to what i thought was spell check, did it but it didn't highlight my errors.

Sorry Zildjian, i had a go as i feel guilty for starting this but i give up.

I'm off to water my hanging basket. I would post a picture .....

Which reminds me 'now' I had planned on sitting a couple of you down at laptop and walk you through this, in all the excitement it got forgotten,

Next meet up we'll set 20 minutes aside a few of us and get this done,
It's one of those thing although now, we have FB
Can you upload an image in the reply box there, you do that I can pick it up and copy it here if that's what is needed OK just saw your post on spellcheck as well we'll definitely set some time aside

agree with Mike on the pictures as well as the american spelling sometimes occasionally a word looks somehow wrong, what I do with that is I google it, and then the results that come up are corrected for me to just correct my own rubbish spelling :shock:

Pictures on the other hand are fairly complicated the first time or so but once you have it jotted down (for refference)

it is quite easy honestly Mike

Umm? Sitting at a laptop indoors or drinking Real Ale, watching Morris dancing whilst eating chips & curry sauce in the Sun. Can i get back to you on that one.

I would, on the other hand, do a weekender up your way in the Autumn & be very keen to learn some keyboard basics over a few mugs of strong tea, if that was an option?

Its an option,
there are a handful of you so I was wondering if we sat around together, it wouldn't take 20 minutes if that its on a par with riding a bike, do it once its 'there' kind of thing

lets think about this, meanwhile add pictures to FB as they do all the work for us :D
