From IE to Firefox. IE was s l o w for a while I thought it was my computer. Since i changed speed is much quicker. the only problem i have is the spell checker. When I type a word it often squidly underlines it when i know my spelling is correct. So is this American and how do I change it to English.

Which Firefox version have you got?
Question Author
don't know scotman, how do i find out?
from the top menu bar open 'Help' then 'About Firefox' It will tell you the version.
You seem to have downloaded the US version of Firefox but that's easy to remedy:

Install this Add-On:
https://addons.mozill...h-english-dictionary/

Then try typing 'colour' and 'color' into an AB answer field. If 'color' is underlined, you're already using the British dictionary as the default. If 'colour' is underlined, right-click on it and then go to where it says 'Languages', selecting 'English/United Kingdom'.

I installed the add on, restarted as instructed typed color and colour and the underlined was the english version. Help.
Er, as I said before . . .
"If 'colour' is underlined, right-click on it and then go to where it says 'Languages', selecting 'English/United Kingdom'"
That will change the dictionary to the UK one.

Thanks Chris done. Can i go back to asking about ST Edmunds church which you answered. I rang the number you gave me and as usual it is down to money. The church though not large and the priests house with 6 bedrooms was not paying its way. I am not religious but it seems such a waste. Why would a priest want 6 bedrooms, I shudder to think. Sorry to be a div over changing from US to English, time of night maybe.
Thanks for your reply (or should that be 'replies'?), Micmak.

I'm pleased that you got an answer to your church question (even though it's the one which we'd both guessed at anyway).
