A little more searching legwork reveals that I was actually thinking of 
RFC 2616, sections 14.9.1 and 2, the cache-control directives.  Whether 
they're relevant to the question you're asking[1] is another matter.

heh.  probably not.

You missed the third item I mentioned: heading over to 
netscape.public.mozilla.security, and asking people over there, who 
should know somewhat more than li'l ol' me.

[1] What _are_ you asking , precisely?  For details of a "secret" method 
to turn off PSM?  I doubt there *is* one (accessible to a web page, 
anyhow), since that would be asking for trouble, in terms of malicious 
pages.  The banks certainly wouldn't want to turn PSM off, anyhow, since 
that would take away HTTPS, which kinda impedes security.

If you're asking about how to deactivate automatic password completion 
on a given page, a little digging in bugzilla  reveals 
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63961, which is pretty 
informative.
