      Start a forum discussion and type: Scotland nd Then click the spell check button. Expected result: 'Scotland' is not highlighted, but 'nd' is.

      When there are mis-spellings, the spell checker sometimes marks words incorrectly.

      To reproduce, e.g. start a forum discussion on moodle.org and type:

      Scotland nd

      Then click the spell check button.

      Expected result: 'Scotland' is not highlighted with a wiggly line, but 'nd' is.

      Actual result: 'nd' is correctly highlighted, but the final 'nd' in the correct word 'Scotland' is also highlighted.

      One of our users reported this and as it is reproducible on moodle.org I am passing it on. Initially I tried to reproduce this on the tinymce website but their copy of tinymce - http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/tryit/full.php - doesn't seem to have a spell checker button so I guess it is a plugin Moodle has added.
