Is there already a mod that spellchecks posts for ANY version of vbulletin? With the new AJAX technology, I think it would be possible to spellcheck WHILE writing the post - or at least without reloading the page. I would consider writing one if it hasnt been done already.

You can check vB Spell. It does not require reloading the page, it launches a popup window and copies back the correction to the text box.

thats a well done mod, so good work tamarian. however, I was looking for something that works a little more like the gmail spellchecker. I think I may just make one. Once ecDownloads 3.1c is released I will work on this.

Ah, I see what you mean, more like an inline/AJAX spell-checker. Check this one out, if you haven't seen it yet:

OK, whoever moved this should remove it back into discussion. No one is requesting that a mod be made, we are discussing the possibility of making a new mod for vBulletin.

Tamarian: I think I will use that. Ok... its time for me to start work on this.

Use the report link, to make sure a mod knows :)

Good luck, I'm looking forward to it :up:

There are many of us who no longer user IE or Windows, but would love to have a spell checker without using some tool bar from Google or Yahoo. **hint hint** ;)
