When I wrote "can type", I meant of course with the spellchecker working in the language, assuming I have the right dictionary installed, without the spellchecker trying to tell me that **all** my _words_ are _wrong_ and _everything_ has a _red_ _underline_, which is _quite_ _annoying_. (Underline for illustration of the effect.)
It would be quite a pity to do all this work in this bug, and then the spellchecker still assumes English, just because Gmail or Yahoo Mail or RoundCube or whatever web app is in English. How would RoundCube know which language I am writing the email in? I write emails (and text in webapps) in multiple languages, so this logic as stated in comment 38 would render the fix here moot in such situations and keep the spellchecker broken for all languages but one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/662840 Title: Spell checking more than one language in Firefox Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox After upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10 x64 with Firefox 3.6.10 I lost Firefox capability to spell check for multiple languages in text forms. This is very annoying as I use two or three different languages in a single form when composing emails for example, and also switch between tabs/firefox windows to fill out forms in different languages, and now I have to switch between dictionaries back and forth. Never was an issue before. There is a need to set up multiple dictionaries/languages to be used at once for seamless spell check on a text form. Am I missing something?
