When entering text in Facebook on your wall in the "what's on your mind" text box, the spell checker is not working at all. I know the spell checker is not supposed to work on text boxes of only one line, but the Facebook text box expands to two lines as soon as you click in it.

This may not be a bug per se, but Facebook is a very important place to get your spelling correct and it really sucks to have to rely on an external spell checker (especially if your spelling sucks like mine does).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to Facebook
2.Log in
3.Type text in the "What's on your mind" text box on your Wall.
Actual Results:  
no matter how badly you spel wurds the spel cheker doesnt notice.

Expected Results:  
i had lots of spelling errors...lol...

underlined the badly spelled words (like tis)
