Check Firefox has a dictionary installed.

Tools>Add-ons

If it doesn't, look in the get extensions link in the bottom right hand corner of the add-ons window.


Oh yeah, and since I'm the first one here...... only on one thread???!!?

Now did you mean Mullet-sillyable? or multisyllable? perhaps even multisyllabic? or polysyllable?

EDIT: that is a minor annoyance of Firefox upgrades ... having to re-install the dictionary!

A useful snippet this. Wondered why my work firefox has a dictionary and this one (home) does not!

Ha! The Firefox spell checker does not know the word firefox! lol
