Thanks
I don't think that a spell checker is appropriate in a technical forum because it would require me to store a constantly updated dictionary of every word in the English language in my database (which is already stressing the server as it is.) Not only the English language ... but there are technical words in virtually every post around here that a spell checker wouldn't have heard of. In this case, the pros just don't outweigh the cons. However, that is why we let users edit their posts for a little bit of time after they post them, to correct typos and things they may have inadvertently left out.
