    Rob,

    Is there anyway to put spell check on the site. I am the first to admit that I am a great offender of the english language but to my credit I have seen some others which make my writings look like Webster himself!!! :-0 I am sure that it would make communications a bit more civilized???

    Just curious?

    A great program that I often forget to use.

    after typing up your reply, right click in the reply box and it will allow you to spell check the entire thing.

    for know, hth.

    We had spellcheck several decades ago on FC, but it was more of a pain than help. Would highlight all the words it suspected and would highlight many words that just had alternative spelling or even just prefixes and suffixes.

    That was the old software, we might give the new software spell checker a try.

    I always have a blank email open to just copy and paste back and forth for spell checking.

    See, I had just mispelled two words in the above post. :)

    Dont worry about spelling words right, when people get to know you it will add to your personality(did i spell that right) besides us Btits and you Americans spell some words differently anyway.

    well, I am a mac user and use netscape so that program wont work for me, looks cool though.

    Maybe if Rob uses the new spell check program we can get all the cool Italian words uploaded to it so we can all spell Campagnolo and Chromodora correctly! Just think how smart all the other car lists will think we are!

    Sinseriously,

    Rob

    I thought it was Cromadora but wasn't sure. So I did a google on Chromodora, Chromadora, Cromadora wheels and all yielded many results related to Ferrari, Fiat, Alfa and other. It should be Cromodora as suggested by -did you mean "Cromodora"- google.
