I'm trying to use HTML spellcheck on a textarea in Chrome. This works on the text I type but, I need to use it with existing text. This doesn't work, only when I select the text then the spellcheck activates. I simply use this:

<TEXTAREA spellcheck="true" class="operatorchat" name="inputtext" id="inputtext">This text is worng!</TEXTAREA>

In Firefox it works. Is there any code to make it work, I thought about selecting and deselecting with Javascript but it doesn't work.

Thanks in advance.

Anyone?
