Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1420490

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[[e-mail]]

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1420490 +++

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:53.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/53.0
Build ID: 20170418123315
Firefox for Android

Steps to reproduce:

Disabled Autocorrect on my on-screen android keyboard. Used an android mobile device to access a web page with the following element using Firefox 57:

<td data-recordid="NEWID" colspan="2" id="NEWID" style="font:18px arial; word-wrap:break-word; width:360px; height:50px;" autocomplete="off" spellcheck="false" autocorrect="none" autocapitalize="none" contenteditable="true"><br></td>


Actual results:

Android keyboard automatically replaces text when pressing spacebar. Spacebar does not insert space, unless pressed multiple times - resulting incorrectly autocorrected  text.


Expected results:

Android keyboard should ignore spelling errors, ignore spell-check, and produce spaces on-screen when space-bar is pressed.

Firefox should honor the Operating System's settings, especially when the code confirms the Operating System's settings.

Please do not file the same bug again. It's not a bug because those are non-standard attributes, undefined in the HTML spec. Web developers should avoid using those things.
