This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
At http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html5-20110525/editing.html#spelling-and-grammar-checking the current text reads: The element with ID "b" in the following example would have checking enabled (the leading space character in the attribute's value on the input element causes the attribute to be ignored, so the ancestor's value is used instead, regardless of the default). <p spellcheck="true"> <label>Name: <input spellcheck=" false" id="b"></label> </p> Recommend change to The element with ID "b" in the following example would have checking enabled when a user enters a value into the rendered input control It is a little confusing that the input is checkable but there is nothing to check.
