[PHP] Self-filling login form
A question please: I have a login form on (PHP 4.3.1 and Apache 1.3.27). When I click inside the ID box, you can glimpse at some of the user IDs inside it for a fraction of a second (similar to a drop-down menu), which shows an unauthorized visitor some of the id values. Worst of all, when you enter your ID the password automatically fills in, giving free access to the unauthorized user. Does anybody know why this happens? Something in the php.ini or httpd.conf files perhaps? Thanks for any comment Alberto Brea -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It's not related to Apache or PHP. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Self-filling login form
A few days ago, I found a way to stop the autocomplete feature. It's more html coding that php actually. Try form action= Method=post autocomplete='OFF' Jean-Louis Jean-Louis -Original Message- From: Alberto Brea [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 10:33 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Self-filling login form A question please: I have a login form on (PHP 4.3.1 and Apache 1.3.27).

You can turn it off in IE by doing Tools - Internet Options - Content tab and then clicking on the AutoComplete button. In Mozila, Edit - Preferences - PrivacySecurity - Forms and also Passwords and uncheck the checkboxes.
