Firefox not doing spellcheck when working in local environment? - html

Quick one from me - is Firefox's spellcheck functionality (I am running ver 37.0.1) disabled when editing websites and apps locally. Words spelled incorrectly are underlined in Chrome and Safari but not Firefox.
I have added spellcheck="true" to a field but still no luck.
Everything seems to be working correctly on the pages that are already online.
Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
Thank you!

Fixed - Firefox needs a dictionary to be downloaded to spellcheck things.https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/

Google Chrome autofilling with blank fields

This is a slightly strange one that I've not been able to find anything out about. On OSX 10.11.4 using Google Chrome v 55.0.2883.95 (this is a friends computer) when opening a page to update a product on a site I've built some of the fields are blank.
I've tested it on other computers and in safari on his and the data is there and correct. It's also in the database as it should be Chrome just seems to be removing it.
I've turned autofill off wondering if that was the problem but it still doesn't work.
Any ideas would be great - thanks
Managed to solve the problem. It was browser based but caused by vue.js working correctly on some browsers but not others.
Disabling the vue aspect of the page sorted it. Now I need to sort Vue :)

html title attribute not showing as tooltip in Chrome

Recently updated my Google Chrome to version 32.0.1700.76 m and it looks like tooltips have stopped appearing over html elements with the 'title' attribute set.
<span alt="Testing" title="Testing">hhh</span>
Here is an example jsFiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/ricksuggs/cDhEL/
I thought it was an HTML standard, it is still working in Firefox, anyone else experiencing the issue?
Version 32.0.1700.76 m works fine for me. Have you tried just clearing your Chrome browser cache to make sure it's not a caching issue?
Unfortunately, this is an old bug that have pop with version 32.0.1700 and is still present in v55 on some system such as mine too.
If you encounter this bug. Please go to http://download1.srware.net/old/iron/win/portable to test version 31 then 32. If you find out it works with v31 but it doesn't with v32, please report it in the chromium bug tracker issue. Specify your setup sharing a link provided by DriversCloud.com to help dev to fix it. They need feedback and details.

HTML5 <datalist> Not working in packaged app

Using this example http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_datalist.asp
- I have no problem in browser, but it doesn't seem to work in packaged apps.
I am on Chrome v26. Version 26.0.1410.64 m. on Windows.
Not sure what "doesn't seem to work" means, but this bug suggests there are issues with datalist for extensions as well in Chrome. I've added a link to your question there so that when it's fixed, we can update this question.

Text flow out of divs in chrome, but not on all chrome users?

I got a really strange problem, and after so much tries and research I can't get out of it.
I have a website, but SOME (just 5% of visitors) people with the SAME version of chrome, see the text flowing out of divs and text overlapping. It's very strange because I tested the website on all chrome browsers using browser testers, without any problem. And in internet explorer or firefox this problem never happens...
A page is located here
And here are some screenshots of what SOME people see (maybe you won't see this in chrome)

Maybe it is because of the font face I am using? Or maybe some bad coded CSS?
Please help me out of this!
Thanks a lot!
I see you use .svg font. Recently I was hunting some Chrome font rendering bugs and saw this:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=95102
This seem very similar to issues you are having. You could try to serve some other font type to Chrome and if this would fix that.
If you don't want or can't serve some other font type to Chrome, the only thing you can do is wait until Chrome version 24 is out to all users which should be soon (I can't find any announcement)
I tested it in
Chrome 23.0.1271.97 m
Chrome 26.0.1371.0 canary
Chromium 25.0.1334.0 (169326)
# Windows 7 x64 and your page seems fine for me.

Clipboard in Safari and Chrome

I found a few articles how clipboard works in IE and Firefox without flash, but I did not find any example regarding to Safari and Chrome. Could somebody share with me example or provide link?
Thank you!
I believe you want to manually set the system clipboard contents from JavaScript running in Safari or Chrome? Unfortunately, this capability was disabled a long while ago due to security reasons (previously, it had been possible to do that using execCommand(), but no more.) Sorry I cannot provide you a link to the respective WebKit bugzilla issue offhand. I'd be curious, though, if someone had a working solution.
