RiteOfTongue

Right-click on a typed word inside a web form to check if the word is spelt correctly and get alternate suggestions if it is wrong. Then select the word from the popup menu to change it. The words are obtained in real-time over the Internet using the dictionary service from Dict.org.If you are running Firefox behind a firewall (or router), you might need to enable outgoing connections on port 2628 or else the menu will say "Wait..." and appear to stop working.

Supported versions: Firefox 1.0 - 1.5.0.* ALL

Notes / Comments: Tip: If you are a hardcore typist and hate switching from the keyboard to the mouse, you can use the Shift+F10 key combination (Windows only) to launch the context-menu and then press the Up key to jump to the "Suggestions" menu.For those people who are looking for an extension that checks a whole block of text at once, consider using "Spellbound."
