Spell checker hard to use on Facebook

Spell check does not check as I type in Facebook dialog boxes. I have to right click and turn off spell check and then right click and turn on spell check. This only happens on Facebook.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Installed Firefox and used my Facebook account

I'm having the same problem, but I'm on a Mac (system 10.5.8) I'm using Firefox 3.6.3

Spell check for kids using flash

I am creating a spell check for kids using flash.
The flash starts with a silhouettes of a word say B A N A N A and below it shows a jumbled up letters. The kids drags and drops each letter on top of the dark silhouettes. If it matches scores points.
Any help in creating AS3 script will be apreciated. I did create one using mc and target mc and works fine when the mc is draged on to target mc. Only problem arises when there are duplicate letters.
Thanks in advance

What I described will work as you describe wanting. If every A movieclip has a property (name this property anything you want, like "myLetterValue") with a value of "A" and every A-target movieclip also has a property with a value of "A", then you can use those properties to determine when any object with an "A" is planted on any target with an "A"
So when you drop a letter on a target you compare the property of each to see if they are equal... if(targetMC.myLetterValue == letterMC.myLetterValue){ // correct match }

Is there a way for the basic ENGLISH spell check dictionary to auto update? Its really annoying to have to update the spellcheck dictionary everytime FF updates

Every time FF updates, it forces me to download and install the spell check dictionary for English. It makes me just choose to use another browser since more often than not its opening facebook and I like spell check when I use fb. Is there any solution?

What Firefox locale do you use?
Is that the en-US version or another locale like the French locale?
You shouldn't lose installed dictionaries and other installed extensions when you update Firefox unless you would reset Firefox or a new profile got created for other reasons like problem with the profiles.ini file.
Are there otherwise problems with updating that you notice?
Note that in case you do not need all four French dictionaries then you can remove others and only keep the ones you need.
You can find the dictionary files in the dictionaries folder of the extension in the extensions folder in the Firefox profile folder or possibly in the Firefox program folder if you use a French Firefox locale (don't know if that locale includes a dictionary).

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

K1 Spell Checker

I have a couple of different note taking apps on my k1 and even in facebook postings and such--how does one find a Spell Checker that will show you a misspelled word, not a list of my contacts. Is there a particular app I should look for? I downloaded a dictionary program, but it wants you to type in it--not the most convenient

Hello quickers1970 and welcome to community,
Kindly look for the application " Spell Checker WYSIWYG " and use it
Best Regards,
Tanuj

Email Spell Check

Two things regarding the spell check. When I click on the spell check after writing an email, it turns the misspelled words yellow. Any 'misspelled' words in the email chain are highlighted and when i send it they stay yellow to the other user. Is there a way to fix this? Also, is there a way to turn on automatic grammatical errors? As in 'i' does not automatically capitalize and neither does the first letter in a new sentence. Are there reasons why there is no Outlook style spell checks? It makes me seriously consider changing to another provider.

Eudora Spell Check Doesn't Work in SL 10.6.1

Eudora's spell checking function stopped working after installing SL 10.6.1. It worked OK in 10.6. All the Eudora files seem to be in place. The spell check works when using a backup copy of Eudora that was made before converting from OS 10.5.8 to 10.6; but it does not work after moving that copy of Eudora to the HD with 10.6.1. Any ideas to get spell check working again? Am I seeing the beginning of the end of Eudora?
Thanks! -- GKernTucson

You can find ispell-de in the AUR.
Edit: There's an option to choose the language at the bottom of the spellchecking-dialog in Kile [Tools->Spelling->Language]
Ah, ok, I'll ask my yoghurt. ;-)
Just because I'm curious: Is it correct that aspell is ispell's successor? So if there ever will be a KDE 4 version of Kile it will probably use aspell, right? Just trying to see the connections here...
I mean after all there's a reason behind the fact that ispell-de isn't part of the repository whereas aspell-de is.

Have IOS5 and new Pages version. Spell check in French does not work

Pages works fine on my IPadI, but how can I get it to spell check in French, used to work fine with other version.
Checked my preferences on my IPad, they are french. What to do?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Checked and yes I did have Pages in French and had the French keyboard checked on my IPad preferences. Your suggestion reminded me of that "world key". Read something about it, long time ago. Never used it before but when I taped it, it brought me a choice of keyboards, so now I can go back and forth from English to French on my Pages texts, and all that without going back to my system preferences!
Thank you for the comment, helped jog my memory.
Regards

Spell checking support in 2.0

Does anyone know if Pages 2.0 - contrary to Pages 1.0 - can make use of spelling dictionaries installed by CocoAspell?
I would really like to use Pages more than I do at the moment but I need integrated spell checking. I do most of my writing in Danish but of the Scandinavian languages only Swedish is included in OS X.
Thanks

What is CocoSpell? I'm looking to replace my WordPerfect/Mac - now that the Intel Macs won't support Classic. WordPerfect is still my favorite word processor, I use it in English and German - therefore I need a German spell checker.
I use Word, and don't like it much, although the spelling & grammer features are superb. I have tried Appleworks and Mariner Write - Mariner is OK, but its spell checkers are clumsy and not intuitive. I am an attorney, and I do most of my own writing so I'm looking for something easy but powerful - WordPerfect for OS X would be perfect - but I guess that's a pipe dream. Does "Pages" come with spell checkers in languages other than English? Thanks all.

Spell checker question

The text I'm entering on a particular forum is not being checked for spelling errors. A member of that forum said it didn't have a spell checker and he used an add on for his browser which was internet explorer. Is there a similar add-on for Firefox?
Thanks. Jim B.

''jimbir wrote:''
"Not all locales come with a dictionary installed due to licensing reasons." Could this be the problem?
The English (United States) version has a dictionary installed by default. Regardless of your Firefox language, if you want more dictionaries, the aforementioned article explains how to add them.
''jimbir wrote:''
When I right click on the box, I see the check spelling option has a check mark next to it but it doesn't seem to be working.
Does the forum in question have a Reply box that is accessible to unregistered users? If so, could you post a link to the page?

Adobe Flash Professional CS6, cant use spell checker, missing or not there

I am trying to use spell checker on Adobe Flash CS6, everywhere I look for help is very minimal. Most places just say click Text > then Check Spelling but I can't see this anywhere, I have found these instructions under Adobe CS6's Help but the Help on Adobe's website was brief an unhelpful.
I am unsure what is wrong mainly because of the minimal help I found on-line but as I said Check Spelling is not under Text and nowhere else as far as I can tell. Any advice would be helpful, I seem to remember having to add a Spell Check Dictionary manually on much older versions of Macromedia Flash is this the case here? If so why is it so hard to find help on this matter?
     thanks in advance for any help.
                   Jamie North - Ucall ltd

Thanks for the response but you have just told me the only piece of information I can find about this - its under Text. But like I said it isn't there, there's nothing to do with spelling at all within my Flash programme anywhere. I am using it on Windows 7 64-bit using Adobe Creative cloud on Adobe Flash Professional CS6 - Version 13.1.0.226
Here is a screenshot
Also why is your answer marked as "Correct?" We have not resolved this issue so far.
     Thank You
