Recently I have come across an issue where I wanted to disable auto-complete in all browsers.
Chrome has a new feature in settings where you can add a card number. And the requirement was to also disable that.
What worked in all browsers was to do this autocomplete=false
at form level.
But this is not compliant with w3 rules, where they enforce to have autocomplete=off|on
.
Can someone please explain to me why false
works in all browsers?
even ie8, all firefox, safari etc., but it is not compliant.
