Safari and dictionary settings

[Ol!ver]

Safari keeps telling me I'm spelling colour and favourite wrong, I assume cos it thinks it's American. The country settings seem fine in OS X. Am I missing something obvious somewhere?

Cheers

You might be missing something;

Command + : and change the language in the menu and see if that fixes it.

Eh? CMD what?

":"


:/

Well that key gives you ; so if I press shift too, nothing happens. Nothing happens without shift for that matter.

Works fine for me...

Greyed out here.

EDIT: I'm using Webkit. Works in Safari.

 

[Ol!ver]

[Ol!ver]

Got the new build, all sorted. Cheers

Stop double posting like a nub moneky.

They've moved the edit button, I'm sure of it !

 

[Ol!ver]

Try being a mod on phpbb3, edit button is where quote should be, and delete it next to edit!

It's that kind of crazy world we live in !

If you are using Safari then you don't have to highlight the word, all you have to do is right click on the word and click "Look Up in Dictionary" as Safari highlights it for you

As for the British spelling, to correct this, go to System Preferences then International. From here, click Edit List and tick British English which should now be on the top of the list. The British spelling now should be correct

Mine was already set like that. It was like the Safari setting was independent.

 

[Ol!ver]

Was doing the same for me. Simple fix though.

It's all very odd, not very Apple at all.

 

[Ol!ver]

It's only odd if you choose for it to be odd.

Oh.My.God.

That's way too deep for this time of night. I think my head just imploded.

(PC +1 spam 4tw..)

It's late and that's lost me completely. I feel stupid.

 

[Ol!ver]

It means post count + 1.

My bad.

It's me, I'm having a moment. I'll be fine in a bit

 

[Ol!ver]

Keep going, I need to fit at least one Matrix quote in...

How long before someone realises we're using this thread as a web-based MSN?

 

[Ol!ver]

You have a problem with authority, Mr. Ol!ver. You believe you are special, that somehow the rules do not apply to you. Obviously, you are mistaken.

Very good. Matrix fan?

 

[Ol!ver]

So, yes.

I know, wondered why.
