How do I automatically change i to I when typing in a details box
bold text The above "bold text" was in this box when I opened it.
My question is:- how do i get auto capitalization of the first word and the letter i converted to I in this sentence?
I have it setup on Windows Office but cannot figure it out in Firefox.
I have auto correct turned on but it does not indicate these problems.
Thank you in anticipation, John H.

I use an add-on to do that. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=Case+Changer
thank you fred for your suggestion re the add-on. i loaded the add-on (Case+Changer) and it appears in the drop down list but as you will see from this text doesnt do what i want.
Below is how I would have expected the above reply to be formatted:-

I can't find a table in this add-on to add personal adjustments to the dictionary.
Further help would be appreciated.

Grammarly for Firefox Grammarly will help you communicate more effectively. As you type, Grammarly flags mistakes and helps you make sure your messages, documents, and social media posts are clear, mistake-free, and impactful.
thanks again fred. i have grammarly loaded and still have the same problem as you can see from this text. As you can see from the above no capital on first letter in sentence and still the no conversion of i to I.
Below is a copy of the text I wrote on grammarly and it only highlighted the words in the list below, no auto conversion and no capital on first word in sentence.
Grammarly Highlited:- i I doesent i i microsoft
testing auto capitalization and conversion of i to I. this another program that dosent do what i want it to. i want a program that does all these changes automatically as microsoft word / outlook, etc does.
Once again this does not resolve my problem.

I don't know of any add-ons that do AutoCorrect like Microsoft Word, either in its on/off settings or specific replacements:
That would be pretty great.
Do you know if there are any Chrome extensions that can do it? Most Chrome extensions can be ported to Firefox with at least partial success.

Thank you very much for your reply jscher2000. I have not used chrome for a long time but it may be worth another look. I suppose the easiest solution would be to compose the text in word and then cut and paste to whatever I’m working on. That way I can proof read it and correct any issues before posting. I will leave this open for a few days and see if anyone has any other suggestions. Thanks again. John H.
