Ambrocious Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Ussually if I spell a word wrong, it will be underlined in red. It's not doing this anymore, even on words that I can tell are spelled wrong. What did I do and how do I fix this? Maybe it's because I'm using FF BETA 10?

Administrator DKT27 Posted January 2, 2012 Administrator Share Posted January 2, 2012 Type something in the reply to this thread box.Right click on text -> make sure "Check Spelling" is ticked. If yes, right click again -> Languages -> click on English / United States. The last step is necessary even when English / United States is already selected.

Sonar Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 have you double checked the about:config tweak to make it spell check in all boxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beer Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 @OPLOL i just noticed that it stopped spell checking recently but didn't know why.@DK27Thanks for the tip. Check Spelling was check but nothing was checked in language, hence why there was no spell check. After I checked English everything went back to the way it was. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ck_kent Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I noticed it before too, using this reply box. The "Check Spelling" is checked.Just like beer said, upon checking further, in the "Languages", "English/United States" is not selected. I selected it and it's working fine now. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator DKT27 Posted January 5, 2012 Administrator Share Posted January 5, 2012 Somehow, due to some unknown bug, somewhere during the recent Firefox updates, spell check stopped working (didn't have any language selected etc.) , maybe around Firefox 8 final. I noticed this. And with some tries, I found that going into Languages and selecting the desired language fixed the problem. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalaffa Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 From the staff forum :) I upgraded to Firefox 12 the other day - from 3.6. The British English Dictionary 1.19.1 addon does not seem to work for me at this forum now. Works fine everywhere else.. tsest ssss . Something with my settings I should adjust? Read my post. :) That did the trick. Thank you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
