I love Mozilla's dictionary extension/add-on, though I noticed that it only works on text areas (blog entries, facebook comment boxes, etc.) as opposed to other one-line text boxes (blog titles, "Enter your name" type fields). It turns out that this is a setting that can be changed so all text input boxes can be checked for spelling. Also, it's not difficult to change either:
Using Mozilla:
- type about:config into the URL address bar and hit Enter
- take note of the resulting message, warning users to be careful with any changes and click the, "I'll be careful, I promise!" button to bring up a list of all of the preferences available in the browser
- type layout.spellcheckDefault into the filter and double click on the matching result to change the setting from 1 to 2
- 0 = Disable Spellchecker
- 1 = Enable Spellchecker for multi-line controls (default)
- 2 = Enable Spellchecker for multi- and single-line controls
- Click OK to save the parameter
