Mikey 16,545 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 For lo, these many years there has been a very fine spelling error catcher on this site. Mis-spell a word and it gets underlined in red. A few weeks ago it stopped working. I still get spelling check on facebook. My browser is firefox. Is this something on my end or at this site? I really, really have come to depend on gettung muh spellung correctded. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telling tiger 156 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 You likely need to just turn on spell checker option. The answer is in this..... http://kb.mozillazine.org/Spell_checking Go to your tool page, Go to options. Enter or tool search, spell check...

Mikey 16,545 Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Well, the spelling checker being turned off in Firefox wasn't exactly the problem but the above suggestions did get me on the path to getting it working again. THANKS! Bottom line, in case anybody else has this problem: My fix was easy once I saw the tip on a Firefox help page: I had to type something in box here, just like I was replying to a comment. Then right click, click "select all" then click "check spelling". After that it started working again. DUH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
