Getting started with Firefox spellcheck

I downloaded Firefox 2.0 and found that it had some really neat features including a spell check which I found was not working in my browser.

I found I had to:

  • open up a text field
  • right click on it and select the “spell check this field” link.
  • then I had to select a dictionary using the “Languages” link.

Now it works fine.

Additionally I can add my own words to the dictionary by right clicking them and using “add to dictionary” below the suggested spellings.

I could not find anywhere on the web where this was explained.
