Textbox webcontrol: supress previous entriesHello,
I am putting together a form where users will enter their name and phone number. Is there a way to disable the property that expands the textbox and shows previous entries that had the same starting characters or numbers? I'm trying to protect the privacy of my users. Thx. Wnz If I'm understanding you right, the "previous entries" on the TextBox control
isn't a property or function of the control. The functionality is the local cache provided by the browser; as far as I know, it can't be controled by server pages or even local JavaScript. The only suggestion I've ever ran across and used is to dynamically generate the text boxes at run time and randomize their ID tags. It's a huge hassle and, quite honestly, we removed that functionality during the following iteration of development--the "security" was determined to be an end user concern. If the end user was thus concerned about the cache, they'd manage that themselves. HTH. -dl Show quote > Hello, > I am putting together a form where users will enter their name and > phone > number.
