I have a few text boxes on my page and find it very annoying the auto complete functionality. Is there any way to remove this from my site?
If you would prefer that Word not generate predictive text, it is easy to disable it. To do so, click File, followed by Options. When the Options screen appears, select the Advanced tab. Now, deselect the Show Predictions While Typing checkbox, shown in Figure 1, and click OK.
Use the <input> tag with autocomplete attribute. Set the autocomplete attribute to value “off”.
Users can enable or disable autofill as well as change the autofill service by navigating to Settings > System > Languages & input > Advanced > Input assistance > Autofill service.
As of HTML 5, the auto complete is a form / input Attribute suported by all major browsers.
<form name="form1" id="form1" method="post" autocomplete="off" action="#">
