spiel-check
My forum editor underlines my misspellings, but also my neologisms,
and also some words apparently missing from the check-word-list. Could someone post a copy of the entire dictionary/word-list? Would be helpful and interesting. |

No, now [I]I'm not at all sure[/I]. (Does that make me an agnostic on this?) How would I check? |

How would I check?[/QUOTE]Turn off JS and see if it still spell checks for you. [size=1]If you have one of the latest crippled FF browsers where turning off JS is made particularly difficult then you will have to spend a few hours trying to figure out how to turn it off for the test.[/size] |

Does mforum (that word got underlined) even do this? |

[QUOTE=davar55;391697]I've spent worse hours, but how about a hint?[/QUOTE]Without any idea about which browser you use I can't help. But if you have the same version as me then it looks like this.

That check box does not appear in FF 34.0.5. Look at the guidance here:
[INDENT]Write this [B]about:config[/B] instead of About config in search bar. Read more from here : [URL]http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config[/URL] [/INDENT]You will almost certainly have to use the Config file to make this change in later versions. If controlling Java is your aim, try the NoScript add on. It gives a lot more choices than "yes" or "no". |
[QUOTE=kladner;391718]If controlling Java is your aim ...[/QUOTE]I think you mean JS. Java (both the drink and the language) is a whole different thing.

I [sit] corrected. |
I think it's the forum, I get spell-check from two different browsers (I think) on
different computers. I'm interested in the word-check-list. |
[QUOTE=davar55;391749]I think it's the forum, I get spell-check from two different browsers (I think) on
different computers. I'm interested in the word-check-list.[/QUOTE] Most (all?) modern desktop browsers include spell-check, so that's not surprising. I'm almost certain it's your browser, not the web page, doing this for you. I'm using the latest Firefox, and just switched to the WYSIWYG [URL="http://www.mersenneforum.org/profile.php?do=editoptions"]editor option[/URL] (being, I think, the most likely option to include its own spell-check) and the spell-check that I have is quite apparently Firefox's. An easy way I can see this is by right clicking in the text box > Languages > Add Dictionaries, which opens [URL="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/"]a Firefox add-ons page[/URL] to install new dictionaries. (also note you can right click on any "misspelled" word and add it to your dictionary) As an additional check, I did a quick read-through of all the JS on this (creating new reply) page, and found no word lists. |
