Other than the spell checker we can install webword so that the word in doubt can be checked with a click (ctl+right click) only!

Hi there, Hub Pages programmers--It would be very helpful if the spell-check utility could be turned on globally for the entire hub while in edit mode.I often find errors in the capsule titles and/or in photo captions,...
