How to disable chrome's autofill with javascript or in HTML

[Nadine Cilliers]

Hi,

I need to know how to disable the auto-fill function in chrome from within code. The reason is that if a user uses auto-fill the field values aren't sent when a form is submitted. 

I have searched the web and found only that <input autocomplete="off"> or <form autocomplete="off" should work but it doesn't. Alternatively I found that you should use <input autocomplete="false"> but that fails as well.

Assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards
Paul

You cannot. You better just change your code not to rely on keypress, focus, blur and such.

Thanks for the reply.

Is there a reason why when only using autofill to complete a field the value is not posted on form submission? The values only go through when you type a value into the field.

Like I mentioned (and especially without a URL to reproduce), the code probably expects certain events to fire, that the browser does not fire when autofilling, like keypress, keyup, keydown, focus, blur and more.

Thanks a lot! I will see what happens if I manually trigger those events and hopefully that will resolve the initial issue.

autocomplete="new-password"

Please Use  autocomplete="new-username" that could work nice

Hey Bhargav,

Are you using that in the form tag or the input tag, It doesn't seem to work for me in ever place. I'm testing it in chrome 63.0.3239.108 (Official Build) (64-bit).

i have also tried changing the name and ID of the field on focus and changing it back on blur, it didn't work... makes me wonder how chrome even knows its the same field.

Thanks

Dylan

$('#login-form').disableAutoFill();

Thanks man!
I only re-used the:
 Math.random().toString(36).replace(/[^a-z]+/g, '');
From that lib to randomise the name of an input element to disable autocomplete. And it works!

Thanks for referring to that github and solution.
