Question

I have set autocomplete off in input field of html form. It perfectly works in Firefox and safari but is not working in google chrome.

This is my basic Form.

<form  action="" autocomplete="off" id="form2" method="post" class="registerDiv">
    <input type="email" name="cust_username_email"  id="cust_username_email" placeholder="E Mail ID* (User Name)" value="" autocomplete="off" class="form-control" />
    <input type="password" name="cust_Pass" id="cust_Pass" required  placeholder="Password* " value="" autocomplete="off" class="form-control"/>
</form>

For new Chrome versions you can just put for example autocomplete="empty" in your fields and that's it.

I understand what you want but for some reason chrome doesn't like autocomplete. – Benjamin45 Oct 11 '18 at 07:46

Chrome ignores autocomplete="off", there is only working on form tag.

You could change autocomplete attribute to other string

<input type="text" name="foo" autocomplete="new-input">
