How does Firefox 10.0.6 handle spell checking
Our users run Firefox 10.0.6 on Windows XP and some are having intermittent issues with the spell checker underlining correctly spelt words as incorrect spellings. Closing and reopening the browser session seems to resolve but the issue returns later in the day or the following day.
I would like to know what Firefox references to perform the spell check and how this is achieved.
'Check my spelling as I type' is enabled and the default language is English/United Kingdom { [en-gb]

Enter the word(s) in question. After the spell checker marks the word(s), right click on one word. A list will open up including the spell checkers guess of the correct word at the top. Just under that is a choice; Add To Dictionary.
You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu. At least one dictionary should be installed and have a check mark to indicate that it is selected.
- Open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.
- Make sure that [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu is check-marked.
You can enable or disable spell checking globally:
- Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"
You can look here for dictionaries:
