To temporarily disable, I have to grab the mouse, move the cursor to the field, right-click to bring up the context menu, then finally click the Check Spelling option. Refreshing the page or loading a new page disabled the checked box and and I'm back manually temporarily disabling the Check Spelling.</P><P>I am aware I can alternatively permanently disable Check Spelling, but I actually prefer it be there for most of the other text fields, so what I have failed to do is discover a way to disable Check Spelling through a hotkey.
