None - Spell Checker - Glaikit Wee Scunner {P}

I am using Google via Firefox. The spell checker does not work on Honest John. It does work on another motoring forum. I have a dictionary and a language pack installed.

Any ideas?

Google Chrome's spellchecker doesn't work either.

I think it's a 'feature' of this site.

I've never known a spellchecker work on this site, but the person to take it up with if you need to is Kalpesh, our IT guru.

None - Spell Checker - FP

Or just learn to spell!

(Another hack: type your post into Word or another word-processor program with a spell-checker, amend as necessary, then copy and paste into HJ.)

Spel cheker werks OK on ere, honest!

It does actually work - I'm using Firefox browser if that makes any difference, (and Windows 10)?

None - Spell Checker - focussed

Do we mean that spellcheck automatically edits misspelt words or underlines them in red so you right click to get the correct spelling? Mine does the red underline procedure ok.
