You post in a small text box and the spell check brings up an equally small text box. This makes it difficult sometimes to actually see the glaringly obvious spelling and grammatical errors.

Would it be advantageous to have the ability to alter and amend posts on the 'Preview' of your post screen. If you do make an error you then have to scroll down and try to find it in the smaller post text box.

The preview of your post is much larger and thus makes it easier to spot those school boy errors.

Just a thought.

I disagree, I'm dyslexic, and often spell things incorrectly, and firefox points out they're wrong, but it's pretty obvious what I'm trying to spell, it just gives obscure words instead. And the BCF spell check doesn't work with Firefox either.

My version of Firefox underlines incorrectly spelt words with a red line. HTH Thumbs Up
