Spell Check
NOTE: this article applies to the SiteOrganic Web Editor.
To spell-check your content for a page, click the spell check button (

The Spelling dialog box displays
- the word not in the dictionary (in the Not in Dictionary field).
- suggested spellings for the word (in the Suggestions field). The most likely replacement is selected at the top of the list.
- buttons that let you ignore the word, change the word, or exit.
