Are you using a JavaScript library for your Ajax calls, and if so which one? Keep in mind that the CheckList control can be made sortable, and the sorting functionality is based on Prototype, so if you use another JS lib eg: jQuery or Mootools, you will very likely run into issues.

Thanks Bob.
I am not clear where it is happening - my content (that was being rendered
as an ajax call) was not showing up in firefox and I used firebug to see
what's going on and I got this error in firebug.. So I tried the same thing
in IE and it works (my content shows up)..  BTW, I don't have Textfield
input type on my content -- I have other controls like checklist etc.

I'll continue to investigate but will try your suggestion of adding this
attribute when adding a control to the form.

Hi Dipita,

I've not seen this issue before. Does it occur when you return a textfield
from the server or does it occur when manipulating a textfield value?


If you want to set this attribute you can set it on the field:

   TextField tf = new TextField("firstname");
   tf.setAttribute("autocomplete", "off");

If you want to do this across the application you can create something
like a "control factory" that creates the controls for you:

public class ControlFactory {

   public static TextField createTextField(String name) {
     TextField tf = new TextField(name);
     tf.setAttribute("autocomplete", "off");
     return tf;
   }
}

Lastly you can create a custom container (eg Form) and override the insert
method to set this attribute when adding the child.

kind regards

Hi,
I am using basic ajax calls to render a sub part of my form..  I am
running
into this issue with firefox (which doesn't happen in IE) - Permission
denied to get property XULElement.accessibleType.
It seems that firefox has a bug where the autocomplete in firefox is
having
a problem - someone suggested a solution -
http://www.seopher.com/articles/fixing_the_permission_denied_to_get_property_xulelement_selectedindex_error
whereby you have to set all input fields to have "autocomplete=off".

My question is if I am using Click Controls to render and create the
html,
then is there another easy way to fix this issue?

Dipita
