3.2.x Provide spell checking functionality User agents provide spell checking functionality for text created inside the user agent (level AA). Intent: Users with various disabilities benefit from the features found in spell checkers today when composing text. It is commonplace to create significant amounts of content inside a user agent today for tasks such as email, social networking and web-based productivity applications such as word processors. The intent of this success criteria is to ensure that users with disabilities can easily correct spelling errors when composing text. Example: Amanda is dyslexic and frequently spells words incorrectly. She is able to correct words when alerted to the errors. She navigates to her web-based email application and composes a new message. The user agent alerts her to spelling errors as she is typing and she quickly corrects the mistakes and sends an error free message.
