How to get Firefox to spellcheck the subject line
http://4paisa.blogspot.com/2008/02/firefox-spell-check-single-line-text.htmlFirefox comes with spell checker which checks for spelling errors in the multi line text boxes. You can make Firefox to spell check single line text boxes also like email subject lines, etc by changing config entry.
Type about:config in a new tab, then go to the key layout.spellcheckDefault. It's value is 1 by default, which means spell check multi line text boxes only.
0 - Disable Spell check.
1 - Check multi line text boxes only.
2 - Check all text boxes, including single line text boxes.
Change the key value to 2. No more spelling errors in the email subject lines.
Yay!

2- add some blather in the message text to encourage other to reply to it adding their "Helps and Hints"
3- pin that sucker

and a HUGE error just popped up saying the site has been blocked ...
Malicious it said.
Hmph. Well, I just clicked on it again, and nothing popped up from Norton or Firefox.
Well, it works, even if the site is squirrelly.
Bravely I followed your directions....
Hit about:config and a window popped up in BOLD, warning me I could invalidate my warranty.
Ha! No trepidation for me...we have home built puters....and Linux at that!
So made the change, and it works.
Color me happy.
Had to reinstall and forgot how to do this.
