Error when using spell checker correction in a Google doc

more options

When I right click on a word that is listed as spelled wrong in a Google doc (which in fact is not spelled wrong, such as 'tumble'), the choose the suggested correct spelling ('tumble'), the final letter is added so that the corrected word has an extra letter on the end.

  Example: tumble --(becomes).--> tumblee

This does not happen except in the Firefox 6 alpha.

Check about that issue in the MozillaZine Builds forum - http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=23 - to see if that has been reported as a Bug. If not, you need to file a Bug report about that problem to make the developers aware of it.

From what I have read, it looks like Firefox 6 is getting a new version of Hunspell, so your problem is probably related to that.
