Sorry for the maybe stupid question, but why the JS-part? Your inputs already have `autocomplete="off"`, why set it again in JS? — brombeer, Jan 30 '18 at 11:51

You need to remove the : in your input selector. The below modification should help:

<script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $('input').on('click', function(){
            $(this).attr('autocomplete', 'off');
        });
    });
</script>

you can also use many other predefined functions like onkeyup, onkeydown etc.

you can disable this with simple html

put 2 false inputs before your input

<input class="hidden" type="text" style="display: none!important; visibility: hidden!important;" ></input>
<input class="hidden" type="password" style="display: none!important; visibility: hidden!important;" ></input>
