Spell checking in Opera

Posted by royalexander on Monday 27 July, 2009

As some of you might know I use Opera as my main webbrowser and I always found it quite troublesome that it doesn’t have a spellchecker. I heard that version 10 would have a dedicated spellchecker so I went out to look for more information.

It turns out that by installing Aspell you can also have spellchecking in  Opera 9.x. I could describe the whole process but hey it’s all documented at the Opera website here: http://www.opera.com/browser/tutorials/spellcheck/ so go out there and have look :) .

To bad though that it doesn’t work for wordpress (it doesn’t detect this field as an input field). Oh well I guesse it will just be forum posts that will be less messed up with errors for now :) .
