防止Firefox自动完成弹出

Question

I wrote an autocompletion script for an input field on a website. It uses jQuery and works fine. It should look something like this:

autocomplete-1 http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/1994/screenshot1lm.png

Unfortunately, Firefox's own autocompletion gets in my way, overlapping some of the results: alt text http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/557/screenshot2ct.png

Is is it possible to prevent the Firefox autocompletion field from popping up? (Not only on my machine but for every user of the website)

Answer 1

Add autocomplete="off" attribute to the input element in question. Eg

<input autocomplete="off">

Answer 2

As BalusC already pointed out, you can use the autocomplete attribute but you can also add it to the form element so that it affects all elements:

<form method="post" action="handler.php" autocomplete="off">

Note that this attribute is not part of a standard but most browsers implement it nevertheless.

Answer 3

Use autocomplete=off in the form or input element.

Answer 4

Use autocomplete="off" . It's not valid HTML-code, but widely adopted in browsers.
