What is data-cip-id in ASP.NET MVC and how do I remove it?

Question

Been trying to find information about this with no luck.

When using a html helper in ASP.NET MVC to generate a textbox as such:

@Html.TextBox("Test")

I always get

 <input id="Test" name="Test" type="text" value="" data-cip-id="Test">

What is this ugly data-cip-id? What function does it have and how do I remove it?

Answer 1

The ChromeIPass browser extension for Chrome dynamically adds data-cip-id attributes to elements on web pages as you view them.

The extension provides KeePass integration into the Chrome browser, allowing you to populate username & password fields on websites directly from your KeePass Password Safe database.
