Forum spell checker in Firefox.

edited September 2006 in Everything Else
It seems that I am not bright enough to use the spell checker. If you hit "start your discussion" instead of "resume editing" after checking the spelling, the change does not take. As a result I got my (Mr.) Period for my misspelling of the word "Mandarin."

Here's an example where I use the spell checker on the word below, make the change but don't hit resume editing:

  • Lols. Yeah, you have to hit "resume editing" after you spell check or it won't work. At least it isn't as bad as not clicking the HTML radio button when you quote.
  • When Firefox 2.0 comes along none of this will be necessary. Misspelled words are underlined in text boxes.
  • Mac's OS wide spell checker has saved my ass from looking like a moron on many occasions.
