Hi Kevin,
On the old board we had a spell checker.
Do we have one available for this new board?
Or have I missed it?

I had been wondering the same thing myself recently. Although I have noticed that when you are typing in your reply, any possibly misspelled words are underlined in red, and it's pretty noticeable. Of course, if you don't know how to spell it, you might be doing a trail and error of trying to fix it. So there is sort of a built-in spell checker, but it doesn't offer suggestions. It also doesn't correct grammar. When you go to type a reply, try intentionally misspelling a word, and you will see what I mean.

Currently there isn't a spell checker installed on the board. I had one added but it was not very accurate so I disabled it. I'll look into a replacement.
I would however recommend using the latest version of Firefox because it has (already built in) a spell check which will identify misspelled words as your typing. Internet Explorer may have an addon that would add this but I don't use IE so I'm not sure.

Maybe the Firefox feature that Kevin mentioned is what I have been seeing when I post.
If that's the case, I would also highly recommend the use of the Firefox browser.
