HTML/Form question. Prevent password saving of input fields. - GoFuckYourself.com

Validus · 02-02-2007, 02:12 PM

Maybe somebody here can help me with a question.

Is there a way to prevents surfers/users from saving passwords in password fields? To force them to enter the password every time.

Is there an attribute to set in the form tag?

If there isn?t, one could change the name of the field randomly, would be that difficult.

Hi,

I could be mistaken but is password saving on a form field not a browser extension?

I know you can tun off the autocomplete feature (in IE atleast) in form fields by using something like this:

<input type="text" name="name" AUTOCOMPLETE="OFF">

This won't really work for password fields though since password fields do not support autocomplete by default.

You could try:

<input type="password" name="pass" value="" autocomplete="off"/>

---

Edit:

Or try and use straight text fields with names that aren't "username" & "password" -- to see if the browser doesn't ask to remember them if it doesn't think it's something it should remember.

Thanks, the autocomplete="off" seems to work... do the trick.

It seems to be determined by the type, not name.

Does it work for Firefox as well?

I've been working on a site using firefox as the main dev browser. The site has a user & pass field that were both typed=text. Never once was asked to remember the values. Once I switch the pass field to type=password, the browser prompted me if I wanted it to remember me.

Then again, I could be retarded. *shrug*

i believe thats how firefox works, if the type="password" then it asks, if not it just assumes its just a regular form

lets say your form is like this

<form name=toy id=toy>
<input size=50 type=text name=boy value="blah" id=boy>

yu can simply tie in a value with javascript to fill in the box.. ( thus deleting any autofilled password )

like this <body onload="document.toy.boy.value='DELETED';">

so the form password text box value initially is "blah" once the page loads it gets deleted and replaced with "DELETED"

of course you prob just want to blank it
