Spell Check

[Madrab]

Do me a favour but is it just Plumbing or do the other forums use an American English spell check too?? Really annoying when I know I've spelt something in correct English just for the spell check to try and bastardise what I've written!!

Even this paragraph has 3 mistakes according to the spell check - favour shouldn't have a u - Spelt doesn't exist as a word & bastardise wants a Z instead of an S ...... really annoying

Come on site owners, it's a UK site with a large majority of UK contributers using a American Eng dictionary?? Sort it oot min!!

Nobody cares in GD anymore. Nobody left.

Lol ... yup .... seems you're right ... 1st time in 4 years I've been here so shouldn't expect any more

Hey Madrab, come back in another four years, there might be more people.

I'm in the US and just checked the words you mentioned in a couple of the forums (yes, I'm bored!) and the correct English spellings are fine for me but, if I try the American spellings, they are underlined as errors. It could be your browser that is doing it and not the site, but I don't know for sure.

Appreciate what you are saying MH and just checked my settings. I know that I am spelling correctly in UK English but the site is then trying to change it to US English. It may be a browser issue but that doesn't contain the spell check, the site does and my preferences are all set to UK. There is no other area that I can change to specify my language settings but hey ho, thanx anyway.
