Problems with Firefox v1.5 ?

Some people have reported that since upgrading to Firefox 1.5 that Spellbound no longer works. However a bit of googling around sorted this problem for me and I list below the steps to get Spellbound working with FF 1.5.x

Step 1.

First of all if you had a previous version of Spellbound installed on an older version of FF then you need to uninstall this from your FF extensions.

Tools >>
Extensions >>
Uninstall Spellbound.

Step 2.

Install the dev version of Spellbound from:
http://exchangecode.com/spellbound/downloads/spellbound-dev_20060108.xpi

You will need to allow the site security preferences.

Step 3.

Install the custom dictionary you require from:
http://dictionaries.mozdev.org/installation.html

Close and restart Firefox

Step 4.

Add the Spellbound button to your FF Toolbar

Right click the tool bar >>
Customise >>
Drag the icon to your toolbar.

Step 5.

The first time you use Spellbound you will need to select the dictionary that you installed.
