writes: Ebay needs a spell-checker: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=52 8 Nothing's spelled wrong on that page ... not even a spell checker will help with mistakes like that! You'd need a grammar checker. That would have probably caught it Funny. Thanks for catching it and sharing. Nick Ehhht! I agree it IS funny. Nonetheless, if you spell a word you MEAN incorrectly and it happens to be another word, you're still misspelling the word you meant. IOW, if you're participating in a spelling bee and the word is "hippopotamus" and you hear "handkerchief" and spell it h-a-n-d-e-r-c-h-i-e-f, you're still misspelling hippopotamus. ;-) dondi3 DONDI enterprises.
