I notice that firefox has its own spell checker. I also notice that when right clicking in the editor in Firefox, you get the standard Firefox context menu as opposed to the Teleirk one (with Paste, Paste from Word, etc.).

Since I allow users to add custom dictionary items and use a central custom dictionary, I would prefer to only use the Teleirk Rad Spell Checker. Is there any way to prevent the firefox spell checker from being used?

Also, is there any way to get the telerik context menu to show up in firefox?

Hi Albert,

Yes, the browser's context menu in Firefox is enabled on purpose so that the Firefox users can directly spellcheck the content using the built-in browser's spellchecker.

Another important reason to display the Firefox context menu is that the Cut, Copy and Paste commands could not be executed via script (JavaScript) and the context menu of RadEditor are partially unusable in this browser. The Cut, Copy and Paste buttons of the browser's context menu work fine.

Kind regards,
