THANKYOU

sometimes you might not get what iam saying but you have to rember that what looks right in my mind and i often cant see that please rember that , and by the way do you no some of the most sucessful people in life are dyslexic e.g
Albert Einstein
Thomas Edison
Winston Churchill
Richard Branson
now remember that next time oh and ONW and krisskross you sound like your from the dark ages and very stuck up in your options of yourself and others
I've spent many years teaching people with literacy and learning disabilities, all of whom have wanted to improve their written communication skills.
Would you to expect to keep walking into furniture if you were blind just so your disability was visible or would you take all steps available to lessen your disability?
I am underwhelmed by your arrogance on this; if those of us who do not have problems can use a spell check facility then I can really see no reason (other than laziness) why someone like you would not wish to.0 -

Firefox has a built in spell checker and there is free add ons you can download for pretty much any browser as far as I am aware.
As for it being 'only a forum', I don't get hung up on spelling grammar tbh but I do think it important to ensure others can understand your posts! Why bother posting otherwise?
Personally, I find it more annoying when people use 'was' in place of 'were' etc but each unto their own I guess.
Ash4becks - I'm intrigued by your reading age! Is that about speed or vocabulary? How is it worked out? Genuine question btw!0 -

I don't have firefox any more (won't work on this computer for some reason so I'm stuck with cruddy safari!) but it is built in, from memory...?
Have a gander through the tools as I think it can be selected from there...
Just checked the website and it says it is built in:
