You might need to select it from Firefox Tools/Options/Main. Click the Manage Add-ons button & disable the default US English dictionary.

Got it Doug!.... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]..!

Well blow me darn wiv a Fevver!.... :o...!

Never realised that option was there!

I assumed that the "British Dictionary" would only contain British Word spellings!
It has both British and American, and one of them requires selecting!

Many thanks, Doug...Sorted!

Paul....its not happy with; "Fevver"!... ::).... ;D... ;D...!

It does. If you have more than one option you must still have the US dictionary activated. It's not important, just as long as you got it working. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

His standards have been slipping recently. He's even started using American spelling. :o ;)
He figures he's never too old for improvement... Image

Leominster, (A Town situated 12 Miles due North of my location), is correctly pronounced; "Lempsta"...

...and Folks slightly North Mexico live in an area called; "Takes-us", and their Pick-up trucks which they use for various illegal purposes, (ie: Undesirable Folks chained to the Tail Gate), are referred to as; "Vee-hickles" and frequently chased my members of the Highway Patrol sporting Colt 45's, and wearing funny Boy Scout Hats.. ;)..>>>>

Paul... ;).... ;D....!

..more on the subject of Takes-us, and the surrounding area, later.. ;)...(Nothing about Halloween tho', ....unless "burning" is involved!).... :o...!

.... ;D....!

Ah, that would equivelate to backstreet southwest Connecticut and older generations of coastal Mainiacs (sometimes the latter went inland a ways: hoppin' on tha wagon, they rode down the 'rud'.
About 15 miles southeast of my original hometown is Lemster (or Lempster), NH. None of our towns were Lemons (when founded).
