Stop Form from remembering previous inputs 
Question

Hi,

Currently creating a form that requires start and end date inputs from the user. The calendar widget is working fine however the input "remembers" the previous inputs and displays them in a drop down over the calendar widget...


Is there a way that I can get the form/input widget to either not "remember" previous inputs or to at least hide them from the user.

Thanks 

Peter

Hi Peter,

Yes, you can stop autofill feature, normally browser have this feature, and if we don’t want we can stop for certain fields, following attribute will do the trick

autocomplete =“off”

add this in the extended property of textbox.

 Thanks

Hi Balu

Outsystems really should mark date input field with autocomplete=off right out of the box...

Hi All,

When autocomplete="off" not work, please use autocomplete="new-password"
