Hal,
Can we get a spellchecker added to the cluster of editing functions ? Maybe I didn't look hard enough but have tried twice but can't find one in either of the Reply to Thread or Post New Thread formats which come up.

Not sure if you're inclined to do such a thing, but Firefox has a spell checker. Gotta download and install Firefox though.
Someday I'll come up with something profound to put here.
Anymouse,
I use Firefox as my primary browser but don't know how I could use that spellchecker as an integral part or a Thread initiative message or a reply in the EAA forums. If you have a method, please share it with me.

When I create a post and have a misspelling, a red line shows up under the offending word. If this isn't happening, try going to your settings. Not sure where that's located on Windows machines (under tools?) but on a Mac you'll find it under Firefox: Preferences. Once you're there, go to the Advanced Tab. Under General, you should see an option to "Check my spelling as I type." Make sure that's checked.

On a Windows OS, in Firefox, go to Tools --> Options --> Advanced --> Check my spelling as I type.
There is a spell check available free called "ieSpell". Google that, down load it and it will forever reside under a right click on your mouse as "Check Spelling" , or left click if you use your lfet hand to move the mouse. It will do a spell check for you in places that windows will not. I have used it for years and it is lovely. Larry
No matter how far you push the envelope; its still stationary!
If you have Firefox 9.0 or later, click on the Firefox Menu Button, then its Options --> Options --> Advanced --> Check my spelling as I type.Originally Posted by Matt Gonitzke

Hal: Is there any way that one can download and put the countdown Hamilton timer to AirVenture on a desktop? Thanks! Greg
Hi Greg - Unfortunately not. I've tinkered with this a couple of times in the past, and I've never found an easy to make it work.
Your best bet is to look for an installable countdown clock widget for Windows or Mac as appropriate that will just let you specify the date and time for AirVenture. I haven't played around with any of them, but a Google search showed a few promising looking candidates.
Best regards -
Hal
