Spell Check with Mylot.com

If you were to use a firefox internet browser, probably you would not face this problem.When you use firefox, you would, whether it is myLot or any other text editor, find spell check feature come in to use.If you mistype a word, immediately a red underline appears on the word, by seeing which you can make a correction.

I also agree with you cyberopjames. Spell checker is good especially if we are typing fast enough that we almost don't look at the monitor...

I think you might want to consider using the popular Firefox browser that comes with an in-built spell checker.

You know James, that is a great idea! I rarely answer questions here if the spelling is so poorly that I cannot figure out what the author is really talking about! I am not sure that they are typo's or if they just don't know how to spell!

I'm also in favor of creating a spelling check system but I'm afraid it will lower the efficiency of Mylot. Actually not so many mistake are made and the mistakes do not really matter. They just cannot be obstacles in reading. If creating a spelling check system won't hurt efficiency, I fully support it. I wonder have I made mistakes above..

Both my browsers of choice, Firefox and Flock, has spell check built in, so I wouldn't really care if Mylot implemented it or not. Everyone should just download Firefox and the interweb will be a better place. Or at the very least a more legible place. Or something.

its a good idea , i also thought of this long time back, spell check in mylot will be very good. But here you to observe one thing that with spell check it will take more time to submite a Discussion or to responce for a discussion. As it has to go to each and every line and correct the spelling , i hope u got it, I really fell good about the spell check but if it is slow then we go mad right. Just think of how much time will that take to make things right.

Your suggestion is good but I don't care about it. I post here just for express my own opinion to ohters. When I type my words I often make error but I think most of us can read the main meaning of my post because some errors are not influent the understanding of the meaning I want to express.

Hello cyberopjames. I think it is a great suggestion for myLot to add the capacity to do spell checks on our posts. I, too, am a stickler about spelling. Yet, I type so quickly, especially on myLot so I can complete several posts, that I still make typos that I don't catch. Later, when I see them, if I'm going back to review a myLot discussion, I feel irritated and embarrassed. I definitely agree with you on this one, cyberopjames. PearlGrace

I would love for them to add Spell Check and, I don't think you will get into any trouble. I think they welcome discussions on helpful tips and suggestions. I think they have taken things that we have talked about here in the past and added them because they saw that we would like them. For example, the Smilies. That wasn't originally here when I first got here 4 or 5 months ago and, it was added because people were hoping they would. So, I wouldn't worry about getting into trouble. I think that myLot appreciates some input. And, you might even toss an email their way suggesting it. It couldn't hurt.

I think that people should just use Mozilla Firefox and the spell checker on there as it will benefit them on mylot and many other website where you have to post a lot of text.

Please, say that again. Please write that again, and again. I keep looking for the spell check, it bothers me to have spelling errors. Great Idea.

I always thought my spelling was pretty good til I got on mylot. I have mixed feelings about spellcheck. If they added it,it might help some people but there's alot of people on here that have some major spelling problems, and I don't think the spellcheck would be able to figure the word they ment to use? I know they are trying to improve thier english. I always try to edit my comments before I submit them!

I agree with that. not all of us came from same place to understand what others really trying to say. so everyone will be responsible to correct the spelling.. right?

i agree. i think a lot of people would like to have this functionality installed in myLot. i am not a fast typist, but i still get a lot of errors in my work. geez. but i heard firefox is a browser that has spell checker installed in its system. gotta check that some time. good day!
