Anyone else noticed a change with DU's spell checker?
In the past, once the process was completed, the window with the spell checker would disappear and a new window would appear stating there were no errors, or that corrections had been made. You would then click a button and that window would disappear, allowing you to post.

Just in the last day or two, I've noticed the small window telling you there were no errors or that corrections had been made appears behind the spell checker window, which you cannot close without first clicking on the smaller "completed" window, which is partially hidden behind the spell checker window. The main spell checker window normally closes on its own.

Is this a change at DU, or a browser change? I haven't checked it with Firefox, but it's happening with IE 8.

I thought I'd see if anyone else had noticed this before I look for changes on my computer.

2. It works great for me now
I use IE8. It spell checks, gives the ok, then the box disappears. Awesome!

3. Just worked OK for me as well.
I posted a message prior to this thread where it didn't work, but the last message I just posted worked as expected. :shrug:
