687420 - spellchecker regression between 20110916 and 20110718

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 687319

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Composition, defect)

Description

[u331436]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:9.0a1) Gecko/20110918 Firefox/9.0a1 SeaMonkey/2.6a1
Build ID: 20110918003001

Steps to reproduce:

I have two dictionaries loaded: English-US (default) and French.
I routinely compose messages either with one or the other dictionaries and often switch between them in the message composition window.


Actual results:

Since 20110917 nightlies, I see two issues:
- unable to switch back between the two dictionaries
- When composing a new message, the spellchecker underlines many words in the message. Clicking again the right dictionaries in the spell drop-down menu bring back the right behavior. As soon as focus is changed out of the composing window, the spellchecker underlines again all / many words, until I click again the dictionary in use on the Spellcheck drop-down menu (message composition)


Expected results:

- Switching between dictionaries should be possible
-spellchecking should stay selected when focus moves out then back in the composition window.

Perhaps a dependency.
