I dont think it has one, why not type your post in word or whatever WP you use and spell check, then copy/paste it in here?

I really admire you Gordon for coming on here and not letting dyslexia stop you from posting, that takes great guts and I admire you for that. I think the advice re: using word first before posting is good one, however, we all know what you are talking about, dont worry. :)

I'll second that. It's all too easy for the rest of us to think that someone with dyslexia is stupid. But I know that that is rarely true.
You can get a spellchecker for the Firefox browser, see here:-

which you could use to check your posts

Hi,
The free Google toolbar has one on and it works on the forum, I use it. I have forgot the link to install it and couldn't find it on here.
I'll search the net for you, it'll be somewhere :lol:

try to reply by typing to word then pasting every time you want to Wright somthin for a while and see how frustrating that is

The only problem with a spell checker is knowing which spelling of a word to use. For example Chequer is a type of piece in the game of Chequers adn Checker is to Check.
I think Gordon, you need not worry about your quest for correctness, as all of us fall down somewhere. My spelling is also abismal!!
