Is there any chance that it can eventually be defaulted to off, but settable by the host/admin? Really, the username/password is the only autocomplete that I care about, and it sounds like that's the only one that will be turned off?

Don't get me wrong, I think all of you devs do an amazing job and I really do appreciate it. Not trying to stir a pot or start a fire storm.

Thanks,

Rob

Rob, as per my post earlier in this thread

"This has already been resolved for 5.0 (the change was checked in 3 months ago). The attribute has been removed from the form in default.aspx. What now happens is that when an authentication control is loaded, the attribute is injected for the username and password boxes only. This should satisfy the need for security and xhtml compliance - please see .http://support.dotnetnuke.com/issue/ViewIssue.aspx?id=7217&PROJID=2 "

It appears that DNN cache does wonderful things for us. Autocomplete works now. Thank you.

Could you, or anyone expound on that please? I'm running 4.8.2, went into the default.aspx file and removed the autocomplete value in the forms, changed the webconfig file so it would reload, cleared the cache from the host menu, and reset IE and I still don't have the option to turn on auto complete.

Thanks,

Rob

Cathal,

I get that, I think. However, the way that I'm reading it, the Username/Password will still be blocked from being saved? You talk about removing the autocomplete="off" attribute from default.aspx, but reinjecting 'the attribute' when it comes to Username/Password, so I assumed that you would be keeping autocomplete turned off for the username/password. If I'm incorrect, I'm ecstatic! If I'm not, is there any chance that it could be a host-settable option?

Sorry for any confusion.

Rob

you're correct, autocomplete would be allowed portal wide except for the username/password fields on login screens.
