    Question How to off AutoComplete feature in edit box of a web page

    In some registration pages, there are 2 edit boxes (next one is for confirmation) for example:
    Email Address: _______________________|
    Re-type email Address: _______________________|
    When I started typing in first edit box, autoComplete feature show me a list. But there's no list for another edit box(is used for Confirmation).
    Please let me know how to do it.

    The end user can turn off the autocomplete feature of IE by doing the following:

    For IE 6

    1. From the "Tools" menu, select "Internet Options..."
    2. In the "Internet Options" dialog box, select the "Content" tab
    3. In the "Personal information" section, press the "AutoComplete..." button
    4. In the "Use AutoComplete for" section in the "AutoComplete Settings" dialog box, uncheck all of the boxes
    5. Press the "OK" button in the AutoComplete Settings dialog box
    6. Press the "OK" button in the "Internet Options" dialog box

    Thanks for your reply. But I don't mean like that.

    What I want to know is....
    In an end user's browser,
    AutoComplete feature has been already on.
    When he type in first text box (Email Address: in my previous post.), AutoComplete feature must be work well.
    But when he type in send text box(Re-type email Address:in my previous post.), AutoComplete list won't be appeared.

    This is even easier!

    To turn off autocomplete in a form element:
    <input type="password" AUTOCOMPLETE="off" />

    To turn off autocomplete for the entire form:
    <form name="foo" action="foo.jsp" method="post" AUTOCOMPLETE="off">

    Note that this is IE specific.
