Gouken Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I haven't heard a damn thing on this since it's "beta" release. It was looking so good too.Too bad Firefox doesn't do much for your sh!tty grammar. 'Its' lacks the apostrophe of possession, because 'it's' literally means 'it is'. lol! I typed that because when I spell something wrong, firefox let's me know by putting a red line underneath it.Here again. Let us? Someone who apparently missed out on grade school should be a tad nicer, don't you think? Also beta should only have one set of quotation marks; 'beta'. Doubles are meant for direct quotes, not implied paraphrases, which is how you used the word just then. Try being less pompous and critical next time. This is the internet ffs. Wow... I just got my ass handed to me. *bows* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavin19 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I don't know which dictionary the spell checker uses for reference but it underlines some words which I know to be spelled correctly. Specifically variations of spellings like vaporize and vaporise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavin19 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 English (United States) by default. I never really noticed it underlining words as my monitor resolution is set to 1920x1080. Plus my myopia doesn't help either ** Moderately OT ** For those interested, to change dictionary go here to download the pack for your language/region. I could only find dictionary addons, not the standalone *.dic files. If you want rid of the addon though you can go here - C:\Documents and Settings\*You*\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxx.default\extensionsYour dictionary addon will be in there. Poke around the folders and you will find the *.dic and *.aff files corresponding to your choice eg. en-GB. Now copy those 2 files over to - C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\dictionaries - and uninstall the addon. Now type about:config in the address bar and navigate to the entry 'spellchecker.dictionary' and modify it to match your choice eg. en-AU. That's that!
