Is this a new feature?

I noticed that when I am typing in a post now, if I misspell a common word or forget a space that a red line appears under the word letting you know that you misspelled it. I just noticed it today. It is similar to what Microsoft Word does when you are typing. Was this added to the site, or is it part of my browser from when I upgraded? I just upgraded to Firefox 2.0

Also when is the spell checker feature going to be available for the Firefox browser. I use IE on my Laptop since I am not allowed to download other programs and it is there but not when I use my home computer it is not.

It's built into your browser. My Firefox does it, knowing Microsoft they probably copied Firefox and did the same thing. I don't use IE, so I wouldn't know.

Firefox feature... not a site feature.

If you're using IE, check out iespell as a spell checker... it's fantastic.

No way.
If a feature like that was ever added to a truck owner site, the cost of the red ink for the webmaster would cause the site to go belly up in two weeks.
