Hi,

Would it be possible to add an autocomplete attribute to the IWForm and/or IWEdit.

According to https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_ht...te_off.asp this should be possible in HTML

Thanks, Paul

Hi, try OnHTMLTag in your IWEdit:

Code:

procedure TIWForm1.IWEdit1HTMLTag(ASender: TObject; ATag: TIWHTMLTag);

begin

ATag.AddStringParam('autocomplete', 'off');

end;

Uses IWHTMLTag.

I think we have JQUI control that does this now?

I did something similar by adding autocomplete="off" to the "ExtraTagParams" of the IWEdit.

But when you programmatically fill or clear the IWEdit, this Tag is deleted and Autocomplete is back.

Thanks to Kudzu, I found "Attributes", where (amongst others) you can set "iaAutocomplete", which does exactly what I was looking for.

So, question answered and problem solved.

Thank you!

Yes, IWEdit and descendants already have the Attributes property. set isAutocomplete to True or False to enable/disable it
