Are you a Mozilla Firefox browser user?
Sick of working out if you are spelling a word correctly (either with an external program, or having to open a paper-dictionary, or worse yet, opening Microsoft Word)?
The people at Mozilla have had an answer available. It’s one easy step to add the dictionary and spell-checker to Mozilla Firefox for your language of choice.
Now you can type your Journal and Writing knowing you’ve spelt that werd rite, corectly and without riping your hair oubt.
Nough, whenever a word is spelld rong, a red line apears under it. Right click over that word to get a choice of alturnative words to replace it.
If you haven’t checked for updates/upgrades in a while, it’s definitely time … because the spell-checker is finally a standard in the program download! Schweet!
1. Menu Bar at top of browser screen.
(Menu,Edit,View,History,Bookmarks,Tools,Help)
2. Click on ‘Help’. Go down DropMenu till you find ‘Check for Updates’.
3. Just sit and wait – the browser does the rest for you.
4. Follow the prompts carefully – your browser may need to close down to apply updates.
