Spell checker for Foxfire 1.5.0.1

I just upgraded to Foxfire 1.5.0.1 and recieved the message that spellbound will not work with it. I have been unable to find a replacement. I am using Windows 2000. Thanks for any help

 

Welcome to the Forum, d1940!

d1940,

You have to do some sneaky things to get SpellBound to work with a new Version, and in fact it takes an additional extension to do it. That is, if you are willing. Or, you can wait until the author updates the Extension.

This is what I did to get SpellBound to work:
I installed Nightly Tester Tools

This extension overrides the incompatibility of the extension. There will be a checkbox on the Extension: "Install using Nightly Tester Tools to override compatibility ". You will need to enable the option.

On the SpellBound page, Fx 1.5.0.1 will be recognized as:
Firefox 1.0+ (e.g. trunk / nightly builds after the Deer Park Alpha 2

You will need to do the same thing for the Dictionary here:

I had to repeat the process more than once to get SpellBound installed. For some reason it doesn't seem to work on the first try???

 

Thanks so much

I sure thank you for your quick fix for my problem. Thanks again

 

My pleasure!
