Nowadays lots of the stuff I write ( for example the posts to this blog) is written directly into Safari, my web browser, rather than a word processor. The problem is, Safari doesn’t have automatic spell checking. I discovered a great little bookmarklet called ‘After the Deadline’ which adds spellchecking to any web browser.
(A bookmarklet is a small piece of code that looks like a bookmark but is more than a bookmark!)
Click on this link, and while keeping the mouse button down, drag it to your Safari toolbar (rename it something easy like spellcheck).
You can find the original bookmarklet here.
How to use:
Click the new “spellcheck” link on your toolbar. A little symbol with a tick will appear at each textbox – click it to do a spellcheck.
