175421 - Spelling Checker in Mozilla Browser E-mail

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 56301

(Core :: Spelling checker, defect)

Description

[Dusty Deryck]

There appears NOT to be a spelling checker in Mozilla 1.1, the one I am using.
I downloaded the newer one, but not installed yet.  A spell check, like Netscape
has, would be useful.

I learned how to modify my browser to install the spellchk Netscape has.
You may wish to tell other users.  I used ftp to download and install it.
Go to:
ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape7/english/7.0/windows/win32/ewc9e/spellchk.spi
You will be asked whether to install. If you chose to insatall Click OK.
Once finished, shutdown Mozilla and restart.  You will then have a Spell Check
for e-mail.

This isn't really a bug in Mozilla, but the absence of it bugged me.

Dusty (I use Windows XP Pro on a Pentium 4 PC.)
