When the user enters a date, it is underlined in red (because it's not in a dictionary somewhere). This is certainly an issue in FF, probably most browsers. Is there a way to flag an input field as "don't expect English words here?"

+2  A: 

Use the spellcheck attribute. Tested in Firefox 3.0:

<html><body>
<textarea>Teh speling is checkd.</textarea>
<textarea spellcheck='false'>Teh speling is not checkd.</textarea>
</body></html>
