Has anyone found a spell checker that works with Firefox 1.5? Spellbound doesn't work with it. I did a search of the Firefox extentions and found something called "Xinha Here" but it sounds like something different. I didn't understand all that they said about it. Joel

Not yet, Joel. I presume Spellbound will be updated, at least, that's what I hope.

I just installed the Google toolbar for Firefox, and that has a spell checker.

Does that toolbar have both an English and a Dutch spelling checker? Mainly English really, I'm doing fine with my Dutch :basic05

Hans, I never use it, so I don't know. All I know is, it HAS a spell checker. :D
BTW it was a question from Joel, so why bother about Dutch. :p

Well, you didn't know Joel lives in a very Dutch town? :basic03

Yes, I know, but that doesn't mean at all that he does need a Dutch spell checker. You know only the town is SORT OF Dutch.:fav06

I'll just keep using the old Firefox until they get Spellbound working. I just wish I could find out why I can't download images. I can with IE.
