Is it just me or has Victor given us another christmas present
 
SPELL CHECKING - thank you!  I can�t believe that I had just never noticed it before!  I am sure it wasn�t here a few days ago...  or maybe it�s only because I have changed to firefox....

It may be because you are now using Firefox,

I have Explorer and I don�t see it. Where is it?...Confused

Yeah, Meuge is right. I use Firefox and that�s why I have this tool - spell checking. When I use I.E. I don�t have it.

Check your browser, Vickiii.

Best Wishes.

I just started typing down here and some words were underlined in red!  Firefox is fantastic (and free). http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/

It even started spell checking my emails!  What a relief!  funny though - they don�t have Firefox as a word in their dictionary - you can add words though just like in word.

obviously no grammar check! hehehe - thought/though - it doesn�t change the sentence too much!

Hiii!

I�ve just downloaded the Firefox and made some typos on purpose but it didn�t show any red marks on my mistakes.
Unhappy
I really like the idea...
Is there any tool in specific that I need to install?

Thanks!!! Wink

cooliris - another add on (wow) it is very cool!  It helps you search for photos - you get a picture wall that you can quickly scroll through - uses google images-  without the pages!

I just went to
Tools/addons and then clicked browse all add - ons.

It has a �fashion your firefox� link - with heaps of very cool stuff!

would love to hear if other people have found fantastic add ons to help them find stuff on the net.

I was wondering - does anyone have an add-on or program or website, that gives you a list of rhymes or �rimes� so you can create word lists easily that sound the same.

rhyme - sat, cat, hat rat,

rime - words that contain �at� anywhere ie at, cat, attack, rats etc.

This would be extremely useful!
