Spellcheck no longer work in Firefox. How can I fix this problem. I have the latest version installed.

It's been working very nicely for a number of years, but now it's stopped. The correct box is checked that should allow spell checking. How can I resolve this issue?

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. At least one dictionary should be installed and have a check mark to indicate that it is selected.

  • 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"
