Where have my wiggly red lines gone? Since a few days ago there is no spell checker in the post text dialogue box when using Chrome. It's still there on Firefox, though.

Perhaps your spelling has got better.   ;D  ;D

Seriously though, I cannot test it as I have IE - where the red lines are still very much in abundance.

Ah, so you're the one who still uses IE!

Seriously though stuving, surely this is just a browser setting? Try this:

It is a case of having to use IE - one of my customers runs a site I have to use which only seems to work properly under it.

OK; I can confirm that the Chrome spell checker still works for me (41.0.2272.118 m, since you ask CfN).

You may be right. Certainly the only checker in Firefox is its own one, and I can enable Chrome's which was turned off. But ... it looks slightly different, was not in the same language as it was when it was on, and I don't remember disabling it recently or that it appeared in every text box (which it does now). That may be just more evidence of memory lapses. I shall try to forget about that (should be easy, after all).

Ehh??  Where did I ask any such thing??  :o

I was about to do some moderating and correct the thread title.

Then I realised what was under discussion...  :-[

<fist shake at stuving>  ;D

I was merely alluding to your apparent fascination with browsers and their versions (searches, but fails to find, suitable emoticon for 'deepest irony')!  :)

Err ... I have expressed no interest in, far less understanding of, any browsers or their versions ... I'm becoming increasingly confused here.  :o

I was referring to this:


Hope that clears things up!  :) :) :)

Be very careful with Chrome Spellchecker...

It's default language checker is English (United States) - Which you should change to English (United Kingdom)

and as you can see; I'm using Chrome and mine still works :)

Interesting - mine defaults to English (United Kingdom) on my Windows 8 PC. I suspect that Chrome picks up its language settings from the OS; that would be the sensible thing for it to do...
