How to disable spell check from input box and text area in HTML forms?
The term spell check is used to check the spelling of a word. The input box is defined by an input element in HTML that allows the user to text something on it. The textarea is termed by feedback or comment box that allows the user to write more lines of text. When we enter grammatically incorrect words into input or textarea fields in HTML forms, the idea of the spell check feature is essentially used. The incorrect words will have by default red underline. It is used to find spelling or grammar errors in text areas or input boxes. If the value false is set to spellcheck then the written input in the textarea and input box are disabled in nature.
