Since the most recent update on Mozilla the spell check for both English and Hungarian has quit working. It will underline improperly spelled words in red but clicking on the word yields no action. No options are shown -- nothing seems to make it budge. I have checked my Tools, Options, Languages on Mozilla and it has both English and Hungarian as the languages of choice and the auto correct is also checked. My language preferences are also installed. I have an HP laptop with 8.1 Windows. Thank you.

Type: layout.spellcheckDefault Its values are; 0 Spell Checker Off 1 Check Only Multi-Line Input Boxes. 2 Check Multi And Single Line Input Boxes.

Also, check the spellchecker.dictionary entry.
