My textarea contains C# code, so i get red underlines all over the place, is there any way to disable auto correction on a TEXTAREA in html code?
Thank

I believe you may be looking for <textarea spellcheck="false"></textarea>

This is an HTML5 attribute so can't be handled in a CSS file. It needs to be part of the textarea markup itself. :-)

A:
Try adding the following code to your textarea:
spellcheck="false"
Note that this will make your code invalid so you might want to inject it with javascript or something after the DOM has loaded if it's important to you.
