For those saying "who cares I use Firefox" I believe 1.1 is waiting on 1.8 of the suite. :classic:

...I found it after posting

ain't that always the way? I find if there is a bug and I am testing one infalible way to fix is to get someone to look over my shoulder when I repeat my test or code walkthrough - very often this will prompt a "Doh!" moment

 

[gonaads]

Ahhhhhh, a Simpsons monent.

hey there - slightly surprised not to find this has come up yet...

I enabled spell checking, then realised it was not English... was checking in American

SOOoooo I have downloaded the .XPI file for ENuk dictionary from MozDev - now how can I plug that into F-fox - someonhe must have done this, but I can't seem to get it in! Help appreciated, thanks...

 

[gonaads]

If I remember correctly you just open it as a file and install it.

File -> Open File -> (navigate to where ever you have the xpi file) Open -> Install.

That should be it.




Ummmmm, one small question... Is the xpi file you downloaded for Firefox or for Mozilla?

 

[Mainframeguy]

thanks Gonaads - I expected to do that - but at the open there is no program association - /me goes to try fro recommended associations anyway... aha, OK can open file from Ffoz and install it there - BUT that has not helped (althoguh it installed!) .... Remember the place I spell check is in TBird and there there is no change - still only have EN/US on the pull down.

I shall try closing and restarting both Ffox and Tbird now (only tried Tbird before).... If I do not /EDIT this post that did not work....

 

[gonaads]

Remove the Plugin and also the first one you installed (the english one). Then reinstall the correct language one and see if it works.

 

[Mainframeguy]

Thanks - but still no go - tried removing both (via Ffox options, Language) and closing bothe Tbird and Ffox - then openning Ffox and adding EN-GB and then openning Tbird - but it still has EN-US (and nothing else from pulldown, except download more - which is how I got the EN-GB XPI file in the first place).

So I am no further forward - and Tbird seems not to be integrated with Ffox here.... maybe I'll just have to live with it and add all anglicisms to my custom dicitonary....

 

[gonaads]

Hmmmmmm, well me hopes someone else reads and has a solution for you.

Tell you what... post the link for the xpi file you downloaded (the correct one you need). Or attach it to your post as a zip and let me play with it at work. I have Firefox and Thunderbird here. Maybe I can figure something out.

 

[Jewelzz]

I'd start my own thread except I can't

I'm using FF and it seems that only on osnn.net, I can't start a new thread or view the last post in any thread (see screen shots) WTF is going on???

 

[Jewelzz]

:cry: My attachments aren't showing, for me anyway. I've cleared everything that I know of to see if that was the problem ... guess what ... it's still a problem

 

[SPeedY_B]

Would appear to be an image problem, what version of Fx are you running? any extensions installed? and why is it only ever you who has these weird problems?

 

[Kush]

yeah see? thats why i was saying what pics when u were posting i had the same problems

 

[Jewelzz]

øøøø! Can't quote someone either

SPeedY_B, I'd love to know what it's only me who has the øøøøed up problems.
I'm running 1.0 and no extensions
