When I'm using IE8 on my XP I have a spellchecker which I downloaded into tools, Is there a spellchecker available for use with firefox? If I go into tools ~ options, the box that say's " check my spelling as I type" is ticked, but its not checking this as I type now. muchos gracias ~ Perro. Reply to this message | Report message

Have you checked the help: support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+the+spell+checker Although it implies it should be working for you from what you say. Reply to this message | Report message

I Didn't realise that it was a spelling problem - just thought you spoke in riddles... Reply to this message | Report message

I had the same problem. FF says it's spellchecking when it isn't. The answer, as Focus says, is to download the dictionary of your choice. Reply to this message | Report message

Who needs a spellchecker? If you can raed this, you have a sgtrane mnid too Can you raed this? Olny 55 plepoe out of 100 can. I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd what I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in what oerdr the ltteres in a word are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is that the frsit and last ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can still raed it whotuit a pboerlm. This is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the word as a wlohe. Azanmig huh?

I don't need a spell checker. I learned to spell when I was at school in the late 1940s and early 1950s! Reply to this message | Report message

Most programs will use the spell checker in your word processor (Word etc); Firefox, if necessary, can be used with the British English Directory add-on. Also ensure you choose English UK rather than US in Tools>Options>Content. Reply to this message | Report message
