Choose your preferred language.

tick "Check your spelling as you type"


Other versions may have slightly different configuration options...

It's worth checking out the "Choose" language thing above that, it's theoretically possible you removed the english dictionary by accident.

It's practically probably that it's just monged up. One of my Firefox instances is the same. I've added and removed and re-added en-gb, unchecked and rechecked the check spelling check box, it's still having none of it.

Thank you UncleBFester I have my wiggly red line back.

By the way, UncleBFester is spelt wrong. It is Uncloister. Please turn on your spell checker.

If you don't know how to do it,
