Disable TextBox Ability To Display Old Data Typed In It

[Maya sekar]

Hi Everybody :) ,
I am working on jsp. You know everytime we enter data into a text box in jsp and it displays old data entered in a drop down. I want that disabled. How do i do that? Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,
Have a great day. :)

Hi Maya,

I think you are talking about the autocomplete. That is a browser feature which can be turned off in browser.

But I think there is a autocomplete="off" attribute for the form as well.
Give that a try.

Thanks

That attribute has been added in HTML5, so not all browsers will support it.
