Is there any spell checker available for Mozilla Firefox?

I understood there was one, but I have not been able to find it, hope some one comes up with the goods because I was going to ask the same question and this forum has never failed yet.

As far as I can tell, it is only available for Mozilla, not Firefox. Mozilla.org could not utilise the Netscape spellchecker because it was not Open Source.

Good links Jeff,

I'd read that Spellbound was 'being difficult' with recent versions! I wasn't aware there was a 'fix'.

Read and follow the instructions carefully; I had big extension problems myself recently (= no Firefox for two whole hours!).

Cheers,

Andy.

I have just downloaded spellbound and it seems to work, I am testing it on this posting and I thought it might be useful to bump it up for others who suffer from atrocious spelling like wot i do.
