Odd. I'm getting it to. There was an update to Firefox recently that may be part of the reason for this. I'll look into it.

Assuming that this has changed, I'm 90% sure that something related to the browser update is the cause of this because our code related to this hasn't changed at all.  It isn't actually a Spell Check problem, it's a right click problem. The TinyMCE right click menu is defaulting instead of the Firefox right click menu.

I should be able to get this changed in the next day or two, but in the meantime, here's a workaround:

When you get an underlined/misspelled word (or just to get the regular Firefox right click menu) do a CTRL+Right Click.

Actually, it'd be nice to just swap the keystrokes with the Firefox menu defaulting, but the the TinyMCE menu available on a CTRL+Right click...

Yay!!  I was *just* about to come here and say the same thing, the spell check didn't work, but I am using Google Chrome. 

Glad to know it works now. I'm a nitpick about spelling! :-

I don't know which came first, but the firefox right click menu has worked ever since I started with the 4.0 Beta on Wednesday.
