Even though I'm now used to the google tool bar feature, which also suggests alternatives;

I'm thoroughly enjoying having the spell check feature back, and the speed of the new server.  Great work guys.   [thumbsup]

But the size of the spell checker pop up window is too small.

I have to scroll to see the bottons at the bottom and then I can't read the text I'm trying to correct.  [bang]

Is it possible to make this window bigger?

The window can be expanded to full screen.

How much bigger than that would you like it?   ;D

Please show me the way, wise one.   ;D

On my browser...firefox...I just click the icon in between the x and the -...

voila...

FWIW, I'm running Firefox 2.0.0.17 and the box is fixed size.

I guess it's only expandable in 3.0.*

The spell check box size is low on the priority list to be perfectly honest.

Yes I'm running IE.

And the maximize box is not active.

I understand this.  I was not asking for it to be remediated quickly.  Just wanted to bring it to the web-geeks attention.

Since Mozilla already went to the trouble of writing code to make maximizing possible...

I think we'll let them keep the glory for now.

We have some other things to do that are more important to the basic operation of the forum.

You should give firefox a try.
