Spell Check

The Text Editor uses the spell check function that is built in to the web browser. It has been tested under the latest releases of the following browsers:

  • Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Internet Explorer

Behaviour varies slightly depending on the browser that you use. However, in general, the following is true:

  • Incorrect spellings are generally indicated by a red line underneath the word in question
  • Right clicking on the word allows you to:
    • select an alternative spelling of  the word
    • add it to your browser's dictionary
    • ask Google for suggestions (Chrome)

For more details on the functionality of each browser's spell check, please consult the browser documentation. We do not support built-in spell checking for browsers not listed above.
