Spell Check

[Hal Davis (MODEL A HAL)]

How do you use the spell check? I've tried several times. I pick the suggested spelling from the list. I click the "Apply Changes" icon. The changes update in the spell check window, but not on the "Make a new post" page. Do you have to do a cut and paste to use the spell check or am I doing something wrong?

Hal,

You have to cut and paste just as if you were using word to use a your spell checkerrr.

If you are using Mac OS X, then you can spell check nearly anything in any program. The key stoke combination is Apple key and colon. In the Safari web browser this works on all text entry fields on all web sites.

But, as Idle Swede points out, your post will probably still be readable even if it contains horrible misspellings.
