If you would like your users to be able to spell check their text before they send it and need something more than the browser based spell checking then this could be of interest. Recently came across this and it looks very impressive: http://www.phpspellcheck.com/ There is a commercial licence for $89 which is a reasonable price I think. You can download the package and integrate it for free though so you don’t need to buy the licence until you decide to deploy it to a commercial site.

If you are writing any javascript in magento and try to debug using console.log, you may find that nothing happens in Chrome, but everything works as expected in Firefox.

So, you’ve just moved a magento setup from one host to another, and you want to check if the email setup is correct, how do you do it? The simple easy way to do this is to have a test front-end user (which you probably already have) and send a password change email to the user. A simple trick but a good timesaver.
