Use FF with the SpellBound (http://spellbound.sourceforge.net/) extension.

What does that do and woudn't it be easeryer to just put a spellcheck on it?

Spellchecking isn't as simple as it sounds. It requires a huge database of words, most likely with the functionality to add/edit/delete words as well. It'd eat up bandwith like a mofo, constantly querying a database. Get yourself a spellcheck extension, or Opera I think has this functionality natively. But I don't think having a spellchecker on this site is a real option.

Opera's spellcheck must first be installed (http://www.opera.com/support/tutorials/opera/spellcheck/)
FF1.1 should have one and can be used in a test build now (http://www.mozillazine.org/talkback.html?article=5922)
IE has an addon toolbar (http://www.iconico.com/webtool/info.aspx?id=SpellCheck) for spelling ($)
