The Firefox 2.0 binary from Mozilla does have its own spell-check, and with English GB and French dictionaries installed I can see a language select on the right click menu when "spell check this field" is ticked.
Thanks, Ian. In fact, I saw the spell-checker feature on Firefox 2.0, running on a MS Windows machine. And many people here claim that Firefox 2.0 and Firefox 1.5 are almost the same thing... In my opinion, it is time to release the Fedora rpm for Firefox 2.0. Paul
