If you do not already have the Dutch dictionary installed, you can get it from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools

Once installed, this link has details on using it - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Using+the+spell+checker

Bart, what is the URL for the site you are on when this is happening?

In fact, it happens in every site where I am reacting Tony........ Its just that I write in Dutch and the programs check my spelling in English. I can't find the place where I can change that.

Tony, I most grateful for your help. It is solved now!! This is a solution that is not mentioned in the help function. Maybe it can be added?

In fact this is mentioned in the help already, see the details link mentioned in post #1 (or try searching for ‘spell checker’, or ‘spellingcontrole’ when support pages are in Dutch). It is also mentioned on the Options - Advanced panel page.
