 Umm ... It uses GoogleSpell, not the Firefox Spellchecker.

 As I've mentioned multiple times, disabling auto-check fixes the issue,
 and makes the the behavior consistent on both browsers.  In clicking the
 button or right-click Spell Check on Firefox, it worked perfectly fine
 every time.

 It's only when you're using the onLoad event there's a problem.

 Change "if(!s.gecko_spellcheck)t.getBody().spellcheck=0;" to
 "spellcheck=0".  Done.  Finished.  No problem.  ;-)

 Turn on the Spellchecker, it works every single time.
