Turn off Chrome/Safari spell checking by HTML/css [duplicate]


Yes, there is the HTML5 spellcheck attribute.

<textarea spellcheck="false"> or <input type="text" spellcheck="false">

Update: This is now supported in the latest versions of all browsers.


This works in Safari 7.1 and should work also in others:

<input autocomplete="off" autocorrect="off" autocapitalize="off" spellcheck="false"/>

Only spellcheck="false" didn't work.


for all elements of a form it is possible and so:

<form spellcheck="false" .. />
