<![CDATA[Spell checking]]>I have run Opera on theis machine for many months but in the past few days spell checking has stopped working. I have checked the setting, even dissabled and re-enabled the setting to no avail.

I am a slow typist and when I try to speed up I come up with some rediculouse spellings.

Any help please?

Thank you to everyone who offered advice on this annoying issue.

Also, you can check, in a "Text box" > Right click > SpellCheck and see what's selected.

As you can see it too failed to solve the issue.
