Description of problem: The spell check in Firefox is checking for British spelling instead of US spelling. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox-3.6.16-1.fc14.x86_64 How reproducible: Happens every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Firefox 2. Go to a page with a text input field. 3. Type the word "center" in the text input field. Actual results: Firefox indicates that the word is misspelled. Expected results: Firefox should not indicate that the word is misspelled. Additional info: The output of the command "echo $LANG" is LANG=en_US.utf8
Are you sure it is not something in your profile configuration? Are you able to reproduce the issue, when you create new profile (run firefox -no-remote -P on the command line to get into Profile Manager dialog to create a new one)? Also what is the output of this command? grep -H spellchecker .mozilla/firefox/*/prefs.js Thank you in advance for any reply

I am able to reproduce the issue when using a newly created profile. The output of the command is .mozilla/firefox/bz6ymybc.default/prefs.js:user_pref("spellchecker.dictionary", "en_ZW"); The output of the command for the newly created profile is: .mozilla/firefox/lk235602.Default User/prefs.js:user_pref("spellchecker.dictionary", "en_HK"); If I edit prefs.js and change the value of spellchecker.dictionary to en_US, the problem seems to be resolved.
