    Ben,

    Nearly every time i try to use the spellchecker, i get a message "could not execute". It seems to get worst rather than better.

    Also i`ve been trying to search for a thread tonight, but the search facility still doesn`t seem to be working.

    I`m certainly not trying to be critical, i do appreciate the work you & the team put in to making this such a good site, but it would be great if these niggles could be sorted out.

    Cheers Baz.

    PS just tried to spell check this message & got could not execute!

    Not tried to use the spellchecker myself and I don't ever bother with it on other forums. You  can type something "correctly" and it'll still tell you there should be a Z in place of an S because it only understand American English! I even tried dowloading the British English Dictionary add-on for Firefox and that didn't seem to make a difference!

    The search facility issue has been brought up before; I think everyone's been just a little bit busy so far.

    Are you talking about your internet programme's favourites or something else?

    If its the programme, have you added it to it?

    I'm talking about the short cut icons that come up automatically when you click on the yellow star top left corner.

    Yes tryed that got icon for most of them but not for this site. It don't matter just wandered if you got it on Internet Explorer. I also tryed on Firefox on icons at all. Never mind.

    Where did you place the site in your favourites?

    Just an example--- If you add the site to a folder called 'woodworking' and then a sub folder called 'member sites', you will see it there by selecting the 'woodworking' folder (don't press the blue arrow or your get every favourite you put into it opening!)  then select the 'member sites'.......it will be in there.
