The spell checker in Gmail doesn't work in the Firefox browser. In fact the speel checker in Firefox doesn't seem to be working at all, even though I've enabled it in Options/Advanced. Is there a fix for this? Thanks.

Hi  !

You may need to download a dictionary.   To do so,   right-click on any text field,   enable spellchecking if necessary,   and then use the provided   'Languages'   menu to download a dictionary.
In addition,   you can find dictionaries here:

Good luck   !
