I have wanted to delete my posts for severeal reasons in the past but never bothered because you need to explain why you wish to delete your own post.
I was just wondering why we are foced to do this as I find it a bit annoying?

Also I have realised there is no spell check button. Why is this? I cannot really think of many bad things that will come with this button being added...


Sorry for the nag, I am just curious

You really don't have to name a reason last time I checked.  Just wait a few minutes, delete your posts and call it .

Ah I never knew that. Thanks

Still not sure why there is no spellcheck button though

Well, what browser are you using? Most decent ones have inbuilt spell checkers anyway. (Firefox, Chrome, Opera).

The only thing worse than beating a dead horse is betting on one.

I use Firefox (not sure which version). If it does have an inbuilt spell checker I have no idea on how to get to it .

What the spellchecker does is underline words you have misspelled.  It should already be set. 

But if it is not, you can go to Tools-->Options-->Advanced-->General.

It should be on General since it is the first tab that I have.  Under General, locate Browsing, and make sure the "Check My Spelling as I Type" option is checked.

This is all on Firefox 3, but it should be relatively the same. 

It was not ticked. Thanks for the help both of you (Though it does not point out any spelling mistakes on this website).

Really?  It should because it works on mine.  Try replying and misspelling some words.  It should underline that word.  Plus, you may have had to restart the browser too.

Nope. Actually it does not work on any website .
