Google Chrome is 'auto-completing' passwords into DataTable search bars... help!

Good Monday Morning all!

My week is off to a meh start with the discovery that Google Chrome is pasting login details in plain-text into DataTables search bars!! :worried: I've got about 6 DT tables in one page and need to come up with a relatively simple solution to set the autocomplete attribute for each of these search bars to off. Anyone got any thoughts on how best to do this?

Cheers,
David

    My research has gotten me this far:

    $('input[type="search"]').each(function(){
    $( this ).attr('autocorrect', 'Nope'); //Chrome seems to ignore 'off' and 'false'
});

    Apparently Chrome is awful with the conventions for this and will ignore most settings for the autocorrect attribute however.
