The built in spelling checker works fine, but may need some attention to some details first. I use it and I also use an extension that checks spelling and Grammar.

Spelling Check: SpellCheck:

Firefox has a built-in spelling checker see

Once set up, you will see wavy lines under misspelled words. Right-click on the identified word to replace with corrected spelling or to add to the dictionary.

After fixing your spell checker and waiting a couple days so you are sure it is working properly with nice red wavy lines under misspelled words, I would install the extension that checks your spelling and grammar. For spelling the built-in spell checker is better.


Also see the following MozillaZine article, basically same information as above in the links to the above.

Hi, sorry it's been a little while, the spellings checked with a tick, I un-ticked it, clicked FF, reopened it, re ticked it, clicked, restart, still no lines. Add-on doesn't seem to have done anything, either :(.
