I would like to turn off the built-in spellcheck functionality in certain browsers such as Firefox and Opera on a textarea that contains HTML embed code for visitors to copy and paste. This can be done with following attribute:
spellcheck="false"
However, this causes a validation error for XHTML Strict. Also, it doesn't work properly in Opera, because the spell checking returns after a user selects the embed code in the text area. Is there another method for turning off spell check functionality?

Hi, what about not using a textarea for this? Are you making this for tutorials or sharing code for debugging (like pastie.org)?
