I just updated Firefox which I have been using for a few weeks to try it out.
I discovered that there is now a Firefox spell check that will work on any board you happen to be posting to. At least it works on this board and BNO.
If you right click in the text of a post you get a drop down menu that states: Spell check this field. Click to check it on.
Now anytime there is a spelling error, you get a faint red underline under the mis-spelled word. Right click on the underlined word to get correct spelling or to add to dictionary. Really much better than any other spell checks I have used. Similar to the one when you are sending emails. It found four mis-spellings while I was preparing this post.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body. But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, a good Reisling in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming:  WOO HOO, what a ride

The spell check feature in Firefox works on all web sites.  Pretty much any time you type an entry in any field on any web page, the spell checker is working.  (Automatic spell checking can be turned off in Tools/Options/Advanced/General tab.)

I have used FireFox for months and it's much faster and better running than Internet Explorer Would not go back. the spell check is always welcome. Blessings Charlie B.

I can't think of even one good reason to ever use IE again, have been using Firefox/Mozilla for a couple of years and will never go back.
