Adding A Spellchecker.

Does anyone know how I can add a spellchecker to my browser that will automatically check text I enter when posting onto forums?

Thanks in advance.

Use Firefox 3 it has an inbuilt spell checker.

1. Open Firefox, then type about:config in the address bar and hit Enter.
2. In the Filter box, type spellcheck.
[SIZE=-2][SIZE=-2][SIZE=-2][SIZE=-2][SIZE=-2][SIZE=-2][SIZE=-2][SIZE=-2][/SIZE][/SIZE][/SIZE][/SIZE][/SIZE][/SIZE][/SIZE][/SIZE]

3. Right-click layout.spellcheckDefault, and then click Modify. Raise the value from 1 to 2.
4. Restart Firefox.

No luck thus far, I have Firefox 1.9.0.10 installed, will this make a difference?

The dictionary wasn't enabled within the Add-ons section, the spell checker is now working for me.

Thanks for your help.

Why not use IE8, if you look at the tool bar you will see ABC Check, if you left click, any mistakes will be highlighted in red.

I wouldn't go as far as that, I use it from time to time, and I find it o.k.
