As noted by my buddy Jonathan Stark, you should be able to use attributes like autocorrect and autocomplete to achieve the effect you&#39;re looking for: 

    &lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; placeholder=&quot;My Field&quot; name=&quot;myfield&quot;
        autocapitalize=&quot;none&quot; autocorrect=&quot;off&quot; autocomplete=&quot;off&quot; /&gt;

Just tested in OS4 and it&#39;s working.

**UPDATE:** As of iOS5 `on` and `off` values in `autocapitalize` have been deprecated. Use `none` to completely disable automatic capitalization.
 

Actually there is literally a spell check attribute in HTML5:

    &lt;textarea spellcheck=&quot;false&quot;&gt;

Browser support is, of course, limited.

I have a URL in an iPhone application to work with. But the problem is that it has some spaces in the URL. I want to replace the spaces with &#39;%20&#39;. I know that there are the `stringByReplacingOccurencesOfString` and `stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding` methods. I also have used them. But they are not working for me. The spaces are replaced by some unusual values.

I&#39;m applying those methods on an instance of `NSString`.


Replace occurrences of space in URL

I am trying to convert a DataTable to an IEnumerable&lt;T&gt;. Where T is a custom type I created. I know I can do it by creating a `List&lt;T&gt;` but I was thinking if there is a slicker way to do it using IEnumerable. Here is what I have now:

    private IEnumerable&lt;TankReading&gt; ConvertToTankReadings(DataTable dataTable)
    {
        var tankReadings = new List&lt;TankReading&gt;();
        foreach (DataRow row in dataTable.Rows)
        {
            var tankReading = 
                  new TankReading
                  {
                      TankReadingsID = Convert.ToInt32(row[&quot;TRReadingsID&quot;]),
                      TankID = Convert.ToInt32(row[&quot;TankID&quot;]),
                      ReadingDateTime = Convert.ToDateTime(row[&quot;ReadingDateTime&quot;]),
                      ReadingFeet = Convert.ToInt32(row[&quot;ReadingFeet&quot;]),
                      ReadingInches = Convert.ToInt32(row[&quot;ReadingInches&quot;]),
                      MaterialNumber = row[&quot;MaterialNumber&quot;].ToString(),
                      EnteredBy = row[&quot;EnteredBy&quot;].ToString(),
                      ReadingPounds = Convert.ToDecimal(row[&quot;ReadingPounds&quot;]),
                      MaterialID = Convert.ToInt32(row[&quot;MaterialID&quot;]),
                      Submitted = Convert.ToBoolean(row[&quot;Submitted&quot;]),
                  };

            tankReadings.Add(tankReading);
        }
        return tankReadings.AsEnumerable();
    }

The key part being I am creating a `List&lt;T&gt;` then returning it using `AsEnumerable()`.

Sometimes the spell checker is unnecessary, captchas, usernames, emails, etc. Is there a way disable it on some text inputs/text areas?

How can I disable the spell checker on text inputs on the iPhone

<p>Sometimes the spell checker is unnecessary, captchas, usernames, emails, etc. Is there a way disable it on some text inputs/text areas?</p>


Is there a way to set a `$_POST[&#39;var&#39;]` without using form related field (no type=&#39;hidden&#39;) and using only PHP.
Something like

    $_POST[&#39;name&#39;] = &quot;Denniss&quot;;

Is there a way to do this?

EDIT:
Someone asked me for some elaboration on this. So for example, I have page with a form on it, The form looks something like this

    &lt;form method=&#39;post&#39; action=&#39;next.php&#39;&gt;
    &lt;input type=&#39;text&#39; name=&#39;text&#39; value=&#39;&#39; /&gt;
    &lt;input type=&#39;submit&#39; name=&#39;submit&#39; value=&#39;Submit&#39;/&gt;
    &lt;/form&gt;

Once the submit button is clicked, I want to get redirected to next.php. Is there a way for me to set the $_POST[&#39;text&#39;] variable to another value? How do I make this persistent so that when I click on another submit button (for example) the $_POST[&#39;text&#39;] will be what I set on next.php without using a hidden field.

Let me know if this is still not clear and thank you for your help.

Setting POST variable without using form

I have a PHP script that will generate `&lt;input&gt;`s dynamically, so I was wondering if I needed to filter any characters in the `name` attribute.

&lt;s&gt;I know that the name has to start with a letter, but&lt;/s&gt; I don&#39;t know any other rules. I figure square brackets must be allowed, since PHP uses these to create arrays from form data. How about parentheses? Spaces?

What characters are allowed in the HTML Name attribute inside input tag?

Whether we can have a form inside another form?. Is there any problem with that.

Form inside a form, is that alright?

I did some googling and here&#39;s my answer

&lt;!-- begin snippet: js hide: false console: true babel: false --&gt;

&lt;!-- language: lang-css --&gt;

    .mirror {
      display: block;
      -moz-transform: matrix(-1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0);
      -webkit-transform: matrix(-1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0);
      -o-transform: matrix(-1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0);
    }

&lt;!-- language: lang-html --&gt;

    &lt;!--[if IE]&gt;
    &lt;style&gt;
        .mirror {
            filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(mirror=1);
        }
    &lt;/style&gt;
    &lt;![endif]--&gt;

    &lt;div class=&quot;mirror&quot;&gt;testing&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;!-- end snippet --&gt;

The only problem here is that the center of mirroring is not the center of the object, so maybe we need some javascript to move the object where we want it.

Flipping/Inverting/Mirroring text using css only

Working on an idea for a simple `HTMLElement` wrapper I stumbled upon the following for Internet&amp;nbsp;Explorer and [Chrome][1]:

For a given `HTMLElement` with an `id` in the DOM tree, it is possible to retrieve the `&lt;div&gt;` using its ID as a variable name or as a property of `window`. So for a `&lt;div&gt;` like

```html
&lt;div id=&quot;example&quot;&gt;some text&lt;/div&gt;
```

in [Internet&amp;nbsp;Explorer&amp;nbsp;8][2] and Chrome you can do:

```js
alert(example.innerHTML); // Alerts &quot;some text&quot;.
```

or

```js
alert(window[&quot;example&quot;].innerHTML); // Alerts &quot;some text&quot;.
```

So, does this mean *every element in the DOM tree* is converted to a property on the global object? And does it also mean one can use this as a replacement for the `getElementById` method in these browsers?

Is there a way to remove the default blue hyperlink colour from a telephone number when viewed on an iPhone? Like a specific Mobile Safari tag or CSS to add?

I only have this in place for the number:

    &lt;p id=&quot;phone-text&quot;&gt;Call us on &lt;strong&gt;+44 (0)20 7194 8000&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

And there are no hyperlinks but iPhone still renders this text number as a hyperlink.  I have this rendering issue on some of my websites but can&#39;t see why this is occurring.

I did read this post:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3712475/mobile-html-rendering-numbers

Is there a way **for a web developer** to turn off Chrome/Safari/WebKit&#39;s spellchecking on particular `input` or `textarea` elements? I mean either by special tag attribute or a proprietary CSS instruction.

There is a CSS instruction for turning off outlining of `input`s so I thought that might also exist. I know how a user can do it.

Or, as a user, can I disable it for some particular domain?

Right now, when I do `:set spell` in my Vim, I get spelling errors highlighted as if they are selected text. What I want is an MS-Word like underlining of spelling errors. I tried to lookup `:help spell` but could not find a clue. Any help is appreciated.

How to change the highlight style in Vim spellcheck?

I&#39;m fairly new to Python and NLTK. I am busy with an application that can perform spell checks (replaces an incorrectly spelled word with the correct one).
I&#39;m currently using the Enchant library on Python 2.7, PyEnchant and the NLTK library. The code below is a class that handles the correction/replacement. 

    from nltk.metrics import edit_distance

    class SpellingReplacer:
        def __init__(self, dict_name=&#39;en_GB&#39;, max_dist=2):
            self.spell_dict = enchant.Dict(dict_name)
            self.max_dist = 2

        def replace(self, word):
            if self.spell_dict.check(word):
                return word
            suggestions = self.spell_dict.suggest(word)

            if suggestions and edit_distance(word, suggestions[0]) &lt;= self.max_dist:
                return suggestions[0]
            else:
                return word


I have written a function that takes in a list of words and executes replace() on each word and then returns a list of those words, but spelled correctly.

    def spell_check(word_list):
        checked_list = []
        for item in word_list:
            replacer = SpellingReplacer()
            r = replacer.replace(item)
            checked_list.append(r)
        return checked_list

    &gt;&gt;&gt; word_list = [&#39;car&#39;, &#39;colour&#39;]
    &gt;&gt;&gt; spell_check(words)
    [&#39;car&#39;, &#39;color&#39;]

Now, I don&#39;t really like this because it isn&#39;t very accurate and I&#39;m looking for a way to achieve spelling checks and replacements on words. I also need something that can pick up spelling mistakes like &quot;caaaar&quot;? Are there better ways to perform spelling checks out there? If so, what are they? How does Google do it? Because their spelling suggester is very good.

Any suggestions?
