Add autocomplete="off" attribute in input control.

<input autocomplete="off" id="name" type="text" name="name">

If you are using c#, you can use this code inside the form. This will disable all the controls autocomplete inside the form.

<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server" autocomplete="off">

If you want to disable individually, you can use this code.

<asp:TextBox Runat="server" ID="Textbox1" autocomplete="off"></asp:TextBox>

Or you can change the autocomplete at run time:

Textbox1.Attributes.Add("autocomplete", "off");

Set the ViewStateMode property of the textbox to Disabled . Should work for you.
