In the meantime why don't you just disable it like so:
(assuming you have only one form)
<html:html>
<head>
<html:base />
<script>
function disableAutoComplete()
{
document.form[0].autocomplete="off";
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="disableAutoComplete()">
<html:form ...>
</body>
</html:html>
this method fails if you dont allow javascript (duh)

The tags are pretty simple, I would submit a bug report as an
ENHANCEMENT with a diff of the changes required to render the attribute.

Thanks Robert...
I realise Struts is a server side framework but take the Struts notation
for say an input box e.g. <html:text property="name" size="35"/> It
supports the attributes 'alt', 'disabled' and various
Javascript-specific extensions which are not all supported or rendered
the same in different browsers... I have read several mails inquiring
about the same thing, if the 'autocomplete' extension will be accessible
through Struts in the future... The auotcomplete function is a security
risk or is percieved as such by many people, it would seem more like
common sense to cater for it in whatever means possible, even if it
simply serves to make STRUTS more attractive as a rapid development
framework for people who are going to use IE to view the application and
where security is an issue. HTML has a standard way of disabling it,
e.g. <input type="text" autocomplete="off"> ... this is how it's
disabled in many banking applications etc. where security is a big
concern...
I'd appreciate any input on this that anyone might have, Thanks, David

Please respond to

David, Struts is a server side framework, and therefore does not
directly control the behavior of the client. Struts, JSTL, EL, etc...,
facilitate rendering data in the client. So unless HTML or Javascript
has a standard way to disable MS IE's *autocomplete* for input forms,
you are at the mercy of the client.
