There is a spell checker in the box where you write posts. It is that check mark at the top left. You click on it the first time and it takes you to a site where you can download an IE spell check for free. When it is installed you can check your spelling right in the post. I like that.

I had the same problem with writing a post then losing it- I even did it with a long thoughtful post answering a J Marcus post. Now I am trained to click that remember box. I have to log out and then log in as Admin, so I have to remember that every single time.

I also use the cut and paste technique with long posts now- just in case. I hate trying to recreate a post I just lavished time and energy on.

Maybe in the new Pearl Guide forum, there will be a subforum for technical questions such as this and how to post pictures. etc.
