Span Lang - Workaround Solution
You still may be experiencing this problem. The usual
FrontPage 2003 fix of ticking 'Ignore Keyboard when deciding the encoding of new pages' under the Language Tab in Tools - Site Settings, (In Expression Site - Site Settings) does not always work.
Expression Web Beta 1 Workaround for Span Lang
As well as applying the FrontPage 2003 fix. If you then select Page Editor Options from the Tools menu and go to the General Tab and make sure 'Automatically Switch keyboard to match Language of surrounding text' is ticked, in my experience the problem disappears.
You should also have language designated in your metas tags like so.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en" />
UK Language Users
However for the UK users even with English (UK) selected as the Default Page Language, the US language spell check takes over, when the above is done.
In order to work around this problem, I just Add the UK spelling to the dictionary as I go along. Usually it's just one letter difference and is not hard to work out.
If I wanted to add the UK Spelling for monetize which is monetise to the dictionary I would just change the z to an s for instance. Then right click on the underlined word which denotes an incorrect spelling and click Add.
