ok so what i am trying to do it have the app that i am working more private as in make the browser clear the data with in the input forms so that it is not displayng info.
for example if i was to type my name in a name box on a form then submit it. then go back to the same form and start typing my name again it would show it as an auto suggest thing. i am trying to remove that little feature with php.
tell me that there is a simple way that doesn make me sound insane
a simple way is to rename the form variables. like append a unique number to the variable
ok but that will mess with the post data so i will not get the data i need to process.

not true. you could preg match for the name, ignore numbers on the end, create a table in the session to match, etc, etc. endless ways to keep track
thanks for the reply. that seems like a lot of work to do just to make sure that it doesnt remember the fields.
i was just on my online banking site and i did noticed that they were using a new thing to me. autocomplete="off" giving a link to the info on it.

yeah, that would work for most, but remember, this was created by microsoft and you may run into compliancy and not being supported on some browsers.
i just am more worried about chrome ff and ie. the people that i am developing for are not that texh savy.
