My latest way is, [ not my idea, someone on ECN suggested this some time back in a thread about spelling and grammar]-
Minimise the ECN page.
Write post in Word, spell check, then Copy to clipboard. Get back to ECN, go to Edit, select Paste and Bobs your Auntie it’s writ. Do a quick scan to final check, then submit. I do this routinely on French boards, since I have a QWERTY keyboard and need to do all thésè çôntinêntal bîts.
I have a Word file with
, [img]…my photobucket…[/img] etc. to make write-ups easier.
As for a ‘quote’ button, this is a problem on one French site, with whole posts being repeated and then a three word comment at the end! Most annoying!

Blimey! That must be one of the shortest 'quotes' ever on ECN!
perhaps better to deliberately write;
[QU*TE]....[/QU*TE] in an example?
