Global attributes

The spellcheckattribute in HTML is a global attribute that enables or disables spell checking for text content within an element, providing a way to help users identify and correct spelling errors during text input. This attribute is particularly useful in form fields, content-editable elements, and any text-heavy areas where user input accuracy is essential.
