BradT Posted September 23, 2009 Share #1 Posted September 23, 2009 Curious if it was possible to add a feature to the Main text area similar to the newer versions of Microsoft and Lotus Notes. When you type a word incorrectly you get a red squigle under the word. If you right click the word there is suggestions for the correct spelling.

flb_78 Posted September 23, 2009 Share #2 Posted September 23, 2009 It's built into Firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted September 23, 2009 Share #3 Posted September 23, 2009 That is correct. I use Firefox and it works that way. The only option available for IE is ISpell where you have to right click on and choose check spelling or use the ISpell icon in the upper right of this box.

BuddyRich Posted September 23, 2009 Share #9 Posted September 23, 2009 Lotus Notes already has a spell check built into it.(the company I work for is a Domino/Notes shop) Are talking about browsing from within Notes. If so, set you browser to be Firefox or IE with the Ispell plugin added from your Notes preferences.That way any links coming thru your email will be opened by the browser you set when your in Notes.

BradT Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share #17 Posted October 22, 2009 I have Firefox loaded now and it gives me a red line if I spell something incorrectly. Also has stopped that problem where the posts go off the screen. Carl you ought to try it, it is better than that old Dictionary you use.
