Not AE but Forum question - Browsers & Spell Check

[Rick Gerard]

Has anyone elce noticed that the spell check built into Safari (5.1) does not work at all when you're using the full editor. It works fine in the HTML editor. Spell check kind of works in Chrome with the full editor. You have to manually run a spell check. I don't have Firefox on this machine so I haven't checked there. It's kind of anoying.

I have always found that there is no automatics spell check on any of the browsers when using adobe forums.  You always have to click on ABC icon to manually check the spellings.  The ABC icon is as shown in this picture:

I am using FF 6.0.2 and sometimes IE version 8.

Thanks, I didn't realize that there was a switch there. My spelling is now easier to check. I don't remember that it was necessary to click the icon before I updated to Lion. At least there's a solution that's easier than switching to HTML where the spell check is automatic.
