Spellcheck for Auctiva

more options

Auctiva's spellchecker is beyond mediocre. Because of that I downloaded Spellbound and was quite happy with its performance.

As you know - Spellbound doesn't work with Firefox v4 and so I reloaded v3.6. That doesn't solve my problem as other things no longer work with 3.6 and so I had to reinstall v4.

Firefox spellchecker doesn't work within the Auctiva item description box. I have a US dictionary loaded.

Spellbound gave me an icon on my toolbar that I could click when I was in the Auctiva item description box. Worked like a charm. No waiting - just quick straightforward spell checking.

Any suggestions?

See if changing the Value of that pref to 2 helps you at Auctiva. I don't use that website so I am guessing this might fix it.


Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter.
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Filter = layout.spellcheckDefault
Right-click that pref and select Modify and insert 2 in the box and hit OK. Then restart Firefox and see if it works.

Hello Ed, Thanks for your reply.

I should have mentioned in my note that I had already done that. It sounded like about:config was just for single line boxes but I thought I would try it anyway. Didn't work for Auctiva.
