ID: 26142 User updated by: kester dot everts at wanadoo dot nl Reported By: kester dot everts at wanadoo dot nl -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: Windows * PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: goba New Comment: I am sorry to say... Test resulted negative. I took a look at your script. You used Fa.autocomplete="off". I tested this. It is correct and it should work, but somehow it does not. It is a bug in MSIE, I think. There is a workaround: Use Fa.setAttribute("autocomplete","off"). I succesfully tested this. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-12-31 06:58:42] goba@php.net I have added some more code to the JS to disable the autocomplete on the form too. Please test the new dropdown if it really disables the IE default autocomplete or not. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-05 13:18:37] goba@php.net Hm, we will do this with Javascript. Thanks for the tip. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-05 11:05:43] kester dot everts at wanadoo dot nl Description: ------------ I am using IE6 with WinXP Pro. It also applies to all other MSIE browsers with AutoCompletion. When using the PHP.net's auto completion, which works fine btw, IE overlaps this with its own AutoCompletion (only with AutoCompletion has been switched on, of course), because I have been at this website before and have searched for functions :) It be easily solved by setting the autocompete attribute value to 'off'. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/properties/autocomplete.asp. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26142&edit=1
