Hi there,

I'm developing a web application that has contains an online
questionnaire.

My client wants users to input answers in English, despite the fact
the questionnaire is in Arabic.

If I view the page on a UK computer and type into some user input
boxes, then the input language is English regardless of what the
language of the HTML page is.

However, if using a computer in Kuwait for example, anything typed
into the boxes will be Arabic.

Is there a way in HTML of forcing the input language on a particular
element?

I hoped this would work :)

<input type="text" xml:lang="en" lang="en" name="forename" value="" />

Any help appreciated

Tobin
