Form Value

How do you code an input box on a form so that when a user comes back
to that form it does not remember it's value. I want the user to have to
key in
his username and password each time he comes to the page. Don't want
autocomplete to be able to remember previous contents.

thanks

IE will obey this...

....but I can (and do) override it with Mozilla FireFox.

<formElement autocomplete="off">

I believe that you can also do this to disable it for the whole form if
that's your desire:

<form autocomplete="off">
