You do not need to install an extesnion, see
- "Set-up of built-in Firefox spelling checker, if not working"
- http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/tab_capacity/001_with_underscore.htm#spellcheck_jumpstart
after following the directions you will be able to check and fix the spelling in both multiline text areas and singline text areas as well.
With a bookmarklet, you will also be able to check the spelling (only) on web pages, or to add new words from a web page if you are sure they were spelled correctly on the web page.
Do you have a dictionary installed and selected?
- You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.
- 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:
