Journal spoonyfork's Journal: Firefox extension: spellcheck for text boxes and textareas 1

"SpellBound is a port of the spellchecker code and user interface from the Mozilla Suite's Composer that enables spell checking in web forms such as html textarea / input elements (html input password elements are not checked by SpellBound) and rich text form elements. This allows you to spell check forms (e.g. message board posts, blog entries, wysiwyg, etc.) before submitting them when using your Mozilla Firefox or Mozilla Suite browser."

After installing download an appropriate dictionary: http://dictionaries.mozdev.org/installation.html

To use: right-click on a text box or textarea in a form and select Check Spelling.

Firefox extension: spellcheck for text boxes and textareas

  • I think the multitude of extensions for FireFox is one of the reasons I've stuck with it after switching from Internet Explorer.

    I only wish there was an easier way of packaging all of my preferred extensions into some nice installer so that when I switch computers, reformat, or whatever, I can easily restore myself to a previous setup.
