# Using the Tiki Spellchecker

If you have permission to edit a specific page or object, and if the **Spellchecking** option for that feature ((Spellcheck Admin|is enabled)), then Tiki will display the **Spellcheck** option when you edit a wiki page or text area:

{img src="img/wiki_up/spellcheck_option.png" desc="Spellcheck option when editing a wiki page." alt="Spellcheck option when editing a wiki page."}

To use the spellchecker, use this procedure:

1. Select the **Spellcheck** option.
2. Click **Preview**. Tiki will show a preview of the page with your edits. Any misspelled words will appear {HTML()}<span style="color:#FF0000">red</span>{HTML}. <br /> {img src="img/wiki_up/spellcheck_word.png" alt="Misspelled words appear in red." width=350 height=150} <br /> <br />
3. Click a red word. Tiki will display a list of suggested corrections in a popup window. <br /> {img src="img/wiki_up/spellcheck_suggestions.png" alt="Tiki displays a list of suggestions." width=350 height=200} <br /> <br />
4. Click the correct word in the popup menu. Tiki will replace the misspelled word with the selected correction.

**Note**: Re-preview the page to view the correction.
