在我的网站上禁用Chrome / Safari上的自动建议/自动完成功能

Question

autosuggestion/ autocomplete on input box in safari

Hey guys I am trying to turn off the auto-complete/ auto-suggestion that comes on the input box on my website. (The issue is both with Google chrome and Safari).

I want to turn it off for any user who comes to my website ie from the code not the settings of the browsers.

I have already tried a variety of things like auto-complete = "off" , auto-complete = "false" , css styling of "display: none" and also jquery hacks like var x = document.getElementsByClassName() x.autocomplete = 'off';

But nothing seems to work here. Can anyone please tell me the solution to the above problem . Also the version of chrome is : 53.0.2785.143 and safari is : 9.1.1 (11601.6.17)

Thanks!

Answer 1

In some cases, the browser will keep suggesting autocompletion values even if the autocomplete attribute is set to off. So try once assigning random string to atrribute.

autocomplete="nope"

Since this value is not valid one , the browser must give up.
