Disable autocomplete completely

kaustubh.agrawal2000

Hello,

I want to disable chrome/browser autofill/autocomplete the form fields with previously saved data.
I understand that it can be done by adding autocomplete="false" tag to form element.
but with datatables editor how do I add that to form element ?

Regards
Kaustubh

Hi @kaustubh.agrawal2000 ,

Yep, as you said, the autocomplete flag is the way to go. See this example, it's disabled autocomplete on the name field, but not on the others,

Cheers,

Colin

@colin

isnt there a better way to disable autocomplete for entire form rather than doing it for every field seperately ??

I think its too tedious to add the attr object fro every field...

Yes, you can set a default for the field options:

$.extend( true, $.fn.dataTable.Editor.Field.defaults, {
  attr: {
    autocomplete: 'off'
  }
} );
