"Do you want Windows to remember this password" - no!

[Adrian Parker]

In asp.net, is there any way of stopping the browser from outputting the
message..

"Do you want Windows to remember this password, so that you don't have to
type it again the next time you visit this page"

The customer doesn't want their users remembering their password as it's
confidential data they're viewing, so don't want them to even have the
choice. Is there something we can add to the pages to stop it asking ?

Yes, you can add the "autocomplete" attribute with the value "off".

If you have a server side textbox for the password field, you can do
something like:

passwordTextBox.Attributes.Add("autocomplete","off ")

Oh, don't know, never tried it. It very well may work, I just knew of the
input control level attribute.

Thanks for Marina's suggestion.

Hi Adrian,

yes, you can surely apply the "autocomplete attribute on a html <form>
element if you do not want any input field in an html <formto utilize
autocomplete feature. Here is the msdn reference which detailed descrbie
this:
