The Firefox browser (my personal favorite) has spell check built in. I can't spell either. Never could, never will. So I thank the browser gods for the addition of spell check.

You can do spell checking server side, but it can be a big load on the server, and its better off done at the client end.

I'm a pretty good speller anyway, but I do use firefox and it does pick up typos :)

Funnily enough though... it doesn't recognise the word firefox!
