Response to: It's work
Thanks for your help about where to turn on Spell Check :) Here's the test... if you look at the source code, it appears that spell check does work in a "text area," field, but does not work in a "text input" box. So if you're only testing this in a text area, it appears to be OK... But, here's the rub. And this is the weirdest thing. When I cleared my Autofill list as mentioned by jfew, the spelling started working in the text area fields (which had previously stopped working). As for bug reports. Yes I file them. But I like to make sure that it's really a bug and not operator error first.

The "silver bullet" did not work on my system...I checked the code and ALL of the large text inputs in Movabletype are text area fields and they USED TO work with spell check. I cleared the caches, restarted Safari, and the even rebooted...no dice, it still doesn't work anymore.
