194139 - Spell Checker/Dictionary: off-line not recognized, don't not recognized

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[Charles Rosendahl]

1. Launch Mail
2. Compose a new one with the follow wording
   "Except one case: Copy and past this sentenceze cert "Don’t initialize Cert 
DB". Because it is in Times New Roman, the check belives that Don’t  is Donte 
and suggest to change it to Donut or Don't;-)"

The "don't" contractions above use a smart quote and are not equated to "don't"
contractions using a regular quote. 

Also, off-line is shown as an incorrectly spelled word, yet it is suggested as a
replacement (don't useoff-line, use off-line instead)

Resolving this bug as invalid.
Mozilla does not have a spellchecker (yet).
This is a Netscape-specific issue and should be filed in bugscape (I believe it
already is).
