Dear Collegues,

I normally work in Trados or simply in Word/Excel, but today I will be working connected to the clients webb-page. Does anyone know if I can use spell check in the browser, I know that Mac has an option where you can rightclick and then choose spell-check but I use Windows Vista...

Thank you so much in advance!

Regards,

Maria

ARe yu a raelly bad tyipsst? Google Toolbar's new SpellCheck button finds any spelling mistakes whenever you type into a web form, including web-based email, discussion forums, and even intranet web applications. The AutoFix option even corrects all of your text with a single click

Firefox can spell check edit boxes. Here are the URLs:
