If autocomplete="off" isn't already a standard, it soon will be... "In practice, this attribute is required by many banking institutions, who insist that UAs with auto-complete features implement it before supporting them on their Web sites. For this reason, it is implemented by most major Web browsers already, and has been for many years."

However, I would discourage its use because it's irritating and it's the reason I have greasmonkey installed in the first place.

I can't help but wonder if the Question Asker was really looking for $cgi->delete_all though.
