I need to be able to spell check a very large text webpage. All the material has already been typed. The organization of the page is very simple (i.e., no boxes or anything like that). It just consists of formatted HTML text.

Note that Firefox allows to customize how spelling errors are displayed to make it easier to spot errors.
