Firefox by default spell checks text fields, it has the built in ability to spell check single line fields(search bars ect) but that is disabled by default.

To activate the ability of firefox to spell check single line fields, do the following:

  • Bring up your about:config page. You can do this by typing “about:config” in your address bar and clicking on “I’ll be careful, I promise” button
  • In the “Filter” field type layout.spellcheckDefault.
  • As you can see, the integer value is 1. Double-click on it, then enter 2 as its new value.
  • Click OK.

AdBlock for Opera 10

If you are like me and totally obsessed with Opera 10, but still a new user to the browser, then you might be wondering how to do a few things on it. One of my biggest problems was to get an Ad Block system up and running in the browser. A little web search gave me the way to do it.

Here are my notes:

  • Opera requires you to save a java script file that does the adblocking for it.  I found one here
  • Save the file into a folder of your choice.  I suggest creating a new folder as you will need to specify the folder not the file in future steps
  • Open Opera and hit “Alt – P”
  • In the corresponding dialog, click on the advanced tab
  • Click on “JavaScript Options…”
  • Hit “Choose” and navigate to the folder where you stored the file and hit “Ok”
  • You might need to refresh the pages for the adblock to take effect.
