After highlighting a word on a webpage, the option of right clicking to open the OS X dictionary does not appear. It does on other browsers (Chrome, safari).

Is there a way to correct this?

Thanks. paul OS 10.9.5 Firefox 32.0.2

Open your 'Add-ons Manager <Control> (Mac: <Command>) <Shift> A) and make sure it is listed and enabled.

You can also go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
