WYSISWG/Spell Checking.

Alright. I finally have a WYSIWYG editor and and spell checker running correctly in Firefox. This shouldn't have been nearly as hard as it was, but being as bad a speller/typist (yea all my errors are typing errors honest

) I was having issues with just about ever solution I tried.

Google tool bar has a nice spell checker with it but when you spell check in web (java) based wysiwyg editors it leaves a complete mess behind. The one time i didn't catch it was an email to all my customers.

So what was the solution?

Performancing

It's a Firefox based wysiwyg editor that has blogging hooks for all the major blogging software (including LJ and serendipity. It's not "web based' which means it's not as finicky as all the web based wysiwyg editors out there.

I got the idea from Wil Wheaton's blog WWdN: In Exile: state of the exile where he explains some of the options he's exploring for the next iteration of his wildly successful blog.

With any luck this will help me turn my "hey I need to blog about such and such" into actual blog posts.

Aiden is counting to 13 (although I alluded to him counting to 15 in a comment, that was premature). And he is starting to discover what being 2 is all about.

I hope everyone has a great weekend.
