TextItem autocomplete="OFF"

[shortpasta]

From the gwt documentation:
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit-incubator/wiki/LoginSecurityFAQ

auto-complete and GWT
Certain browsers offer the option to store username/password combinations so that they are automatically filled in for the user the next time they visit the page. However, usually this works only if there are two input boxes (one of type password), and only if those input boxes are loaded along with the main page, and not added later via javascript (which is what GWT does).
In order to force these input boxes to show up, stuff them in the project's HTML in an invisible div. Then, in GWT, instead of creating a TextBox and a PasswordTextBox, make the div visible and read out the values using the DOM. library.

And somebody that did a little hacking and got something to work, at least partially:

Does anybody have a solution for this?

If anyone has figured this out, please let me know.

I want to give my users the ability to have their browser save their usernames and passwords.

Hi,

any news or other ways to support the password save functionality in the browser?

Hi,

i wondered that there is a method called setBrowserSpellChecking(boolean) to activate/deactivate the "spellcheck" Attribute, which is on the same level as the "autocomplete" attribut, but i can't find any equivalent for this.

This is the part out of firebug for my textitem:

<input type="TEXT" tabindex="1241" style="width: 133px; height: 14px; -moz-user-focus: normal;" class="textItem" autocomplete="OFF" oninput="isc_TextItem_0.$43g()" spellcheck="true" $9a="$9b" $89="isc_TextItem_0" handlenativeevents="false" id="isc_O" name="userName">

In the ISC_Forms.js i found these part "AUTOCOMPLETE=OFF" in TextItems/Areas, but actually i can't find a way to set it "ON" in Java Code.

setAttribute/setProperty on TextItem won't work .

Hi,

how can i modify the autocomplete Parameter of a textItem.
If i use firebug, i see autocomplete="OFF" in my textItem, so the browser can't save my data for the next time i load the application and i have to turn it "ON"

Any ideas?

Thx
