Does anyone know how to get GNU Aspell to work with Firefox on Windows XP? It works sweet with GAIM for real time spell checking, and would really like it with Firefox, but I have been unable to find anything on either the Aspell or Firefox site, as well as google.

You could probably find/write a extension to use it.

I did a quick google and found something called 'spellbound' that is a spell checking extension for firefox. Don't know how well it works or anything like that since I've never tried it out. To bad your not on Linux or whatnot, the easiest solution is to use the KDE desktop's browser called Konqueror that has spell checking built in, which I've used and is pretty nice.

Yeah, if I had the time or skill I would love to write an Aspell extension for ff. I saw a few different extensions not utilizing Aspell, but would rather use the same library and I really like the way Aspell works in GAIM.
