I think a spell checker would be a good idea. The ammount of times I have had to use a spell checker off site, because I like my spelling accurate.
What do you think?

Most browsers have them inbuilt do they not?

Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari all have built-in spell checking. Internet Explorer has an add-on that gives you spell-checking.

If TFS added spell-checking, it would probably increase server load and page load times while duplicating functionality most users already have.

Switch to a browser that has spell-checking, or add it to the browser you are already using.

It may be difficult to account for different variations of English I guess as well.

What browser do you use? If you google search you should be able to get an add-on spell checker which might help.

I use firefox. I am aware that there is a spell checker on there, but I was thinking about having one on site, instead of having to use another site to check the text I just wrote.

Is it possible to have a Canadian/UK spell check instead of a US one? I'm tried of seeing that red line while I use "ou" instead of "o" or "s" instead of "z"

Just wondering, but why do you have to use another site to check your spelling? The browser spell check should work on any page you can post on. For me, when I post on TFS, the spell check shows up as soon as I type out a word if spelt wrong.

Firefox has spell check, but doesn't check what you write in TFS? Odd, I use Opera and I've never had that problem. It checks everything I type.

Firefox has spell checking built-in. It's not an addon.

Perhaps you are running a rather old version of Firefox and need to upgrade.

In Chrome you can alter it to UK spelling,not sure about Canadian though.

Possibly. I'll try and upgrade later tonight, and see if that works.
Cheers.
