It has been a while since I submitted to Lord Fred story. And it appears that quite a bit of improvement has been made since then making the software quite easy to use. And being able to proofread your submission makes it easy to avoid mistakes.
Or not quite. A spelling checker would be a big help to those who has a tendency to make lots of typos.
Please add this feature, Jeff, when you get a chance. This would help the moderator avoid having to edit episodes to fix typos.

I usually just use Word Perfect to type up my episodes and run a quick spellcheck that way. Just a suggestion.

Or you can use MS Word, of course. (But if you do, please switch off "intelligent quotes" and the like, as these may not display as intended for someone using a non Microsoft browser.)

Or you can just learn to spell right. Jeez, what do they teach kids in the schools these days!?
Hmm, maybe I should follow my own advice...

This is on my TODO list. I just haven't been very good about working on my TODO list lately.
Does anyone know of a good open-source spell checker library and dictionary that works with PHP? If I have access to something like that, this would be an easy feature to implement. Heck, I suppose even having access to an open dictionary would be a good start.
