    It's not gone.There are so many spelling mistakes even WITH the spell checker,imagine how many there would be WITHOUT the spell checker!

    It is still there. Yahoo changed the layout and this is one of the improvements they did. If you misspell a word a little icon pops up on the right side of the page and tells you a word is misspelled. The spell check pops up to give you the correct spelling as before. Hope this helps!!!

    It's not gone. If you spell something wrong, a very annoying little pop up will come up and tell you that you've spelled something wrong and you'll be able to click on it and change it.

    Maybe it gave up in frustration. I can't even read half the things people write.

    Oh, I still have spell check, but I don't know if it's through Yahoo Answers, or Firefox.

    I tried to ask this very question earlier b/c of some retards that were driving me crazy and the Answers police busted me. They deleted my question. Probably will delete this too! Then I took a deep breath, calmed myself, and reminded myself the average age of Yahoo Answers users is 12. Sigh...oh useless youth.
