I don't know of any English spell checker for Firefox right now but I've downloaded and tested beta version 2.0 and it has an integrated spellchecker. Exactly like Microsoft word with the squiggly red underline.

Hi.

If you are asking about spell checking in text boxes -- as we all do when using a forum, for example -- then you may like Google Toolbar. It has a number of features including spell checking: http://www.google.com/tools/firefox/...m_term=toolbar

If you're looking for something else, you'll need to explain more, at least for me ... cheers, drl
