GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 221000
Spell checking should not highlight URLs
Last modified: 2005-05-22 00:20:04 UTC
Description of Problem: gtkhtml's spell checking tries to spellcheck URLs. When composing an email, entering something like http://www.foofie.com/ will cause the spell checker to highlight 'foofie' as a mispelling. Of course it is, but it shouldn't matter in an URL, as they often contain mispellings. Please fix it so that URLs are ignored by the spellchecker. How often does this happen? All the time.
wishlist and feature, bumping to future
