Background

Firefox 2.0 integrates spell checking in form controls. When a user right-clicks in a field with spell checking enabled, â€œDictionariesâ€ appears in the context menu with an option to download dictionaries. This preference determines the URL loaded when that item is clicked.

Possible values and their effects

A string representing the URL to visit where the user can download dictionaries for the spell checker. Default value is â€œhttps://%LOCALE%.add-ons.mozilla.com/%LOCALE%/firefox/%VERSION%/dictionaries/â€. (%LOCALE% is replaced with the currently selected locale for â€œglobalâ€ â€” usually general.useragent.locale â€” and %VERSION% is replaced with the current Firefox version.)
