My Reviews

British English Dictionary

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I have reviewed this add-on before in June 2009 but re-reviewing as I see a lot of people are having compatibility problems, however it works (and always has) fine for me.

It worked on Fx 2 versions, Fx 3.0.x versions and also Fx 3.5.x versions. At the minute I am using Firefox 3.5.3 [Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090824 Firefox/3.5.3] and it's working perfectly - it also installed perfectly!

The *only* problems with installing I have had is one time when many add-ons would not install from AMO (don't know why) but it did the next day. I have always used it on Windows XP and Vista using the en_US version bar a couple of times I used the en_GB version, dictionaries installed on that too and it would NOT install on an old Netscape Navigator (9.0.0.6) either. Best bet is to ask for help at the MozillaZine forums.

I still maintain it is an excellent dictionary. It does need an update as dictionaries are constantly being amended and added to but this contains more than enough to get by for day to day usage. You might need a more comprehensive one if your into writing essays for collage / university etc.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.19).

Thank you very much for an excellent dictionary! Even though I am from the UK I use a US dictionary as well for when I am coding and also for some forums and using / posting from the NASV Bible - plus the British dictionary does not work on Netscape Navigator 9.0.0.6 (Gecko/20080219 Firefox/2.0.0.12) but this does so it earns an extra point. No problems at all, no conflicts etc. Thanks again!

This is a great dictionary, it might not be completely up to date but still passes as a large majority of modern British words are included. Thank you

I love this updated version, it is excellent. I like the way the user scripts are now in the add-ons menu. I can see some people prefer the old version *but* if you gave the option to choose between old styles version and new would it not make this extension bloated? Maybe make two versions this one and the old style one? I prefer this one, top job, top add-on and makes the web my own PLUS can help people with colour blindness or those who like the web in black to use less energy consumption.
