Just after the last update the spell checker 'while typing' stopped working. When I press send the box comes up but it is blank. Attaching a screen print.

Do you have the correct version of the dictionary to match TB 68?

Right-click the Download Now button on the dictionary page, Save Link As... to download the xpi file, then in Tools/Add-ons/Dictionaries in TB, click the gear icon under Search, 'Install add-on from file...', select the xpi file.
