Where did the spellchecker go ? (problem solved)

Postby greenoaks on Sat May 03, 2008 12:26 pm

Where did the spellchecker go ?


Specifics: When I typed something in a post I use to get a squiggly line under any typo. Right-mouse click on the word and alternative (correct) spellings would appear.

Do i need to check a box somewhere to put this back on, is it a bug or has it been removed completely ?

this is something firefox does, not CC. Try right-clicking in the typing area and checking the option "spell check this field". It might have been turned off.

As this isn't a bug about CC, I've moved it here.

Spellcheckers are for wussies. Real men (and women, too, obviously) check their spelling themselves.

There is a spell checker?
I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is.
