New issue 129968 by ryan.ben...@gmail.com: Context menu doesn't contain
spelling options when activated with the keyboard
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=129968

Chrome Version : 19.0.1084.52
OS Version: 5.1 (Windows XP)
URLs (if applicable) : N/A
Other browsers tested: N/a
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 5:
Firefox 4.x:
IE 7/8/9:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Spell a word incorrectly
2. Right click on the word, you should get spelling suggestions
3. If you move the cursor to the same spot and press the menu key or shift
+ f10 the spelling suggestions do not show up

What is the expected result?
The spelling suggestions show in the context menu

What happens instead?
They don't show

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
While this is an accessibility bug, I am aware there is a spell-check
hotkey for ChromeVox, but the spelling suggestions need to be made
available for users who don't (by preference or ability) use the mouse. It
would be overkill for me, personally, to fire up ChromeVox to use
spellcheck.

Greetings,

Thank you for your bug report.
When I type a misspelled word 'lasy' and type a menu key on Chrome
19.0.1084.56 (US English), I can see suggestions. Would it be possible to
give me the word that you cannot get suggestions and the language used for
spellchecking text?

Regards,

Hironori Bono

when I type lasy, the keyboard context menu key works but I have to put the
cursor in the middle of the word (not at the very beginning or end).

Ryan, can you confirm the following:

(a) You are still seeing this issue
(b) What language / word you can easily repro with
(c) Whether the suggestions appear when the cursor is in the middle of the
word?

Thanks!
