It appears that the Google Toolbar's Spell Check feature is incompatible with WWF's Rich Text Editor in FireFox.  It seems to work on all other websites, just not in WWF.

What happens is you click SpellCheck and try to check your spelling, it starts the check just fine.  However, when you click Stop, it does not work and WWF saves the markup that Google Toolbar has used to indicate misspelled words.

This isn't as important as the other stuff, but you should be aware of it.  I'd rather have you finish version 8 than work on this bug, however.  After version 8 is done, then get to this bug... unless you can do it quickly... but I'd rather have version 8 stable as soon as possible. Wink

Notice it allows me to fix the spelling errors, but it won't let me click Stop which reverts it back to the original text.

From what I have read the Google Spell checker doesn't work in allot of RTE's.

However, the new version of SpellBound looks much better as it underlines words with spelling mistakes as you write them.

This version of SpellBound is still in Beta Testing and can not yet be launched from the spell check button, but I'm hoping the final version will.
