It has come to my attention that I have become an extremely dislexic typer and it seems every post I make is riddled with letters being out of order etc.

I'm really not as stupid as my typing would indicate but man my posts are getting ridiculous.

Is there any way to include a spell checker in here?

"It's all about stickin it to the man!"
It's a long way to the top if you want to rock n roll!

I use FireFox 2, it has a spell checker built in when I fill out forms. Funny, though, it thinks "FireFox" is a spelling error! :)

As for adding it to the forum itself, it wouldn't be too difficult a task for someone that knows web programming to code a spell checker, but otherwise you just gotta hope there's a module for your particular forum software and that it's easy to install. Googling, I actually do find such a plugin for phpBB:

Edit: Corrected a horrendous grammar typo - clearly I don't have grammar checker!
