The missing feature

I'm very close to switching from Safari to Firefox as my primary web browser. There is however, that one nagging feature that Firefox does not do as well as Safari. Spelling checking in Firefox still lags. It seems like it should be easy, given that spelling services are built in to Mac OS X. My guess is that given the lack of availability on other platforms the development teams have chosen not to use it on OS X. More digging....

The closest that Firefox come

The closest that Firefox comes is an extension called SpellBound. Unfortunately, it doesn't currently include the ability to check spelling as you type.

Comment buried in SPAM! I've got SpellBound running and it's pretty good. I've just been too spoiled by inline spell check.
