ERayR Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 I changed hard drives and have since been unable to get spell check to work in my posts. Is there a setting I may have missed?

I mean,,,,may the good Lord help you (and me) to utilize technology to glorify His name with good grammar, taste, and spelling. I am glad "u"! care. Heh.
Storm Rider Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 I think the newest Explorer comes with spell check built in.
sethpayne Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 Windows 7 ultimate. Firefox browser. Ok. Click on the three bars in the upper right corner and then click on Options. Click on Advanced Make sure "Check my spelling as I type" is checked Click OK Did that do the trick? 1
ERayR Posted October 7, 2014 Author Posted October 7, 2014 Ok. Click on the three bars in the upper right corner and then click on Options. Click on Advanced Make sure "Check my spelling as I type" is checked Click OK Did that do the trick? It was already checked. It seems, so far, the board is the only place I go that doesn't spell check.
sethpayne Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 It was already checked. It seems, so far, the board is the only place I go that doesn't spell check. Odd.... but I think I had a similar problem with Chrome a while back... I'll keep diggin' 1
Nofear Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 (edited) It is possible for Firefox (or other browsers) to get some minor corruption in the configuration. Resetting the preferences to the default may help:https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-preferences-fix-problems Note, on my office and home computer, spellcheck in the field works just fine. But heire douwn on the clasroom computar, it dosn't flag anething. EDIT: Nevermind, having access to a so afflicted computer and resetting the preferences as suggested did not solve the issue.
