Firefox Spellcheck in CKEditor?

    I recently switched to CKeditor (with Drupal 6.x), and am very happy with it. The interface loads much quicker and runs more smoothly. It also appears that there's less files cluttering the installation.

    The only thing I can't figure out is why the native Firefox spellchecker (the red squiggly lines) is disabled by default. I know that with FCKeditor I could enable it with the following command in my fckeditor.config.js file:

    FCKConfig.FirefoxSpellChecker = true ;

    What is the equivalent way of doing this in CKeditor?

    Great question DrupalJunkie

    Here's how to enable the default Firefox spellchecker in CKeditor/ Drupal. In your ckeditor.config.js file (located in /modules/ckeditor/), add the following line at the end of the file, just before the closing }; tag:

    config.disableNativeSpellChecker = false;

    You'll probably need to clear your cache and force refresh the page in edit mode to see the changes take effect.

    Hi Little Jenny,

    Great question. Yes, Firefox can be used to check spelling in other languages. Simply visit the Mozilla dictionary add-on page and install the dictionary corresponding to the language you wish to add.
