I have a couple of words that my fingers almost always mistype. Autocorrect in Microsoft Word almost always catches and corrects them. Firefox only tags them. Is there a Word equivalent add-on that can bring the autocorrect function into things that I'm typing within the browser?

You can right click on the tagged word and select the correct spelling. You can read more in How do I use the Firefox spell checker? under "Correcting misspelled words". Feel free to reach if you have any more problem.
