And it took you all of 20 minutes to boot ... whoa, dude, that's customer service I'm not accustomed to, especially for free. <bg>

Glad to see you back here and enjoying it!

checking how the Spellcheck works, I tried

Google this's "example" 'examples'

and it catches Google and Spellcheck which are not in the dictionary, and the other words pass.

It lets this's pass because it drops the 's which is OK with me.

Let me check for mismatched quote "marks'. That passes, too, which also is OK.

Speaking of rogue punctuation, did you ever notice that punctuation following links invalidates them since the punctuation is not ignored? For example:

Click here for siliconinvestor.com. [link invalidated by period at end of sentence]

vs.

Click here for siliconinvestor.com . [link OK since period at end of sentence is preceded by a space]

I modified the spell check to ignore 'quotes' and chop off the 's (apostrophe S) before looking for spelling errors.

Does that have anything do do with this glitch, or is that some other problem?

Thanks in advance for looking into it!
