How do I disable the underline thing in Firefox on Android? I' m using Perfect Keyboard and the function which is supposed to check spelling is a DISASTER!

I use Firefox and Perfect keyboard on my Huawei Mediapad M1. This combination seems to keep some spellchecking active, though only thing I notice is an underlining on each word I write, like right now. But it's a complete DISASTER. I use three languages on a daily basis and I have absolutely no intention to switch between languages only because of a useless function like spellchecking. But the underlined words mess up my editing completely. If I use arrow keys to get back in my text to edit a word, the last entered word gets copy-pasted into the place of editing, without any logical reason. This doesn't happen in another browser OR with another keyboard. So don't blame Perfect keyboard. This is a problem with Firefox and perfect keyboard. If you are going to blame Perfect keyboard, I promise I'll dump Firefox, not Perfect keyboard.

The function also ruins some functionality on Google and Facebook, where you usually don't need to type the whole word, until Google or Facebook finds something you might look for. But Google and Facebook never recieve anything before a whole word is typed ending in a space.
