form data / auto complete

I'm trying to disable autocomplete, but my attempts caused my program to stop working normally ... as if every value was zero ... perhaps.

I used...

head "<meta http-equiv=""cache-control"" content=""no-cache,no-store,must-revalidate,max-age=0"">
<meta http-equiv=""pragma"" content=""no-cache"">"

html "<form autocomplete=""off""></form>"

I also used that last html line by itself. I don't know much about this. I just found something at another forum and tried to adapt it. I would like to disable autocomplete when Input is used, but still be able to carry values throughout the running of the program (assuming that's where the problem is).

Any tips?

The RB application is already inside a form, I do not know if nesting forms is good and I think to remember a similar problem.

How about using autocomplete='off' without the form tags ???

Thanks. Still not working. In fact now I can't get the autocomplete to stop at all ... like I did before ... whether the programs works right or not. Strange.

Maybe I'll have more luck with JS (which I don't know much about).

Could you prevent auto-complete with a DIV ???

I don't know. How would that work?

Below find a working example.
The key to success is using HTML input boxes, the name property is mandatory and will be used with #request to get the contents of the text field.
This is tested as a published application with FF3 and IE7.

head "<meta http-equiv='cache-control' content='no-cache,no-store,must-revalidate,max-age=0'>
 <meta http-equiv='pragma' content='no-cache'>"

[restart]
 cls
 text$ = "Hello world!"
 print
 'RB command
 'textbox #box, text$

 'HTML 5 Info at www.w3schools.com/tags/html5_input.asp 
 'HTML replacement for text box without auto complete
 html "<input type='text' class='text' id='#box' name='#box' value='"; text$; _
 "' autocomplete='off' autofocus='true' />"
 print
 print
 link #action, "Accept", [accept]
 print
 wait

[accept]
 text$ = #request get$("#box")
 print
 print text$
 print
 link #reload, "Reload", [restart]
 print
 wait

Thank you!

I need to input numbers but I can use: val(mid$(text,ドル 1, 1))

Do you know if the HTML INPUT can be used so that I can just hit the Enter key ... instead of clicking on a link or button?

-----------------------------------

head "<meta http-equiv='cache-control' content='no-cache,no-store,must-revalidate,max-age=0'> <meta http-equiv='pragma' content='no-cache'>"
[restart] cls
print
text$="1234"
html "<input type='text' class='text' id='#box' name='#box' value='"; text$; "' autocomplete='off' autofocus='true' />"
print
print
link #action, "Accept", [accept]
print
wait

[accept] text$ = #request get$("#box")
print text$
print
print "1st char multiplied by 100 = "; val(mid$(text,ドル 1, 1))*100
print "2nd char multiplied by 100 = "; val(mid$(text,ドル 2, 1))*100
print "3rd char multiplied by 100 = "; val(mid$(text,ドル 3, 1))*100
print "4th char multiplied by 100 = "; val(mid$(text,ドル 4, 1))*100
print
link #reload, "Reload", [restart]
print
wait

Or is it possible to use some kind of BUTTON that can be engaged by hitting the Enter key ... a BUTTON that would take the place of the LINK but serve the same function ... in this HTML INPUT situation?

Add the attribute inputmode='latin digits' to only allow numbers.



I don't know, I haven't had a need for such, but you can try to add a button of type submit.
An example can be found on the page I included in the code.

Thanks.

What I really need is for the cursor to be in the field from the start ... so I don't have to click on it every time. Apparently, this can be done with javascript. So I'm trying to learn enough about JS to create an input that includes...

• autocomplete off
  
• auto cursor placement
  
• use of enter key (not click on link)
  

I'll be inputting four numbers together and then the program will act on each individual digit.
