Can't Prevent Google Chrome From Auto filling Field

This question has been asked before and I'm asking again because none of the answers worked.



I've got a form on my checkout page where I have autocomplete="off" in the <form> tag.



My form contains address information. Specifically, I have a field named address_line_two which should not be auto filled. So, on this input I set autocomplete="false" on this input field. This works on my PC, but I have video monitoring installed on my site and several of my chrome users are able to auto fill the address_line_two field. I also see the duplicated auto fill data in my database as a result. I am referring to the Google auto fill function that automatically populates a form with a previously saved address. Is there an updated work around to this issue?

  • Chrome autofills address_line_one correctly, but then autofills address_line_two with the same information as address_line_one. When you save an address in chrome, there isn't an address_line_two option anyway. If there is a technically correct approach I'm all about it but haven't seen one yet. @KevinB

The browser is going to remember the values provided to the autocomplete attribute for future use. So for individual users that have filled out different forms made by developers with different naming conventions, the fields will populate accordingly.



Most users like autofill and want it to run. You could give your input a random auto-complete value to prevent auto-complete from running, but, it will likely slow users down.



 <input autocomplete="address-line2">


The attribute above above follows chrome's recommended settings for forms, so most liekly to grab the right string to cram into the input. That will probably net you the most correctly auto filled forms over time.



If you take this advice make sure to do the same naming convention for address line 1:



<input autocomplete="address-line1">


Please note I left out a all of other attributes and values you need for an input field to simplify the answer.



Here is some documentation I drew from.
https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/06/checkout-faster-with-autofill



This quote is from the documentation link:



"For one address input: street-address For two address inputs: address-line1 , address-line2 address-level1 (state or province) address-level2 (city) postal-code (zip code) country"

            Monofisismo

            Image
            Monofisismo (do grego: monos - "único, singular" e physis - "natureza") é o ponto de vista cristológico que defende que, depois da união do divino e do humano na encarnação histórica, Jesus Cristo, como encarnação do Filho ou Verbo ( Logos ) de Deus, teria apenas uma única "natureza", a divina, e não uma síntese de ambas. O monofisismo é contraposto pelo diofisismo (ou "diafisismo"), que defende que Jesus preservou em si as duas naturezas. Historicamente, o monofisismo se refere primordialmente à posição dos que (especialmente no Egito e, em menor grau, na Síria) rejeitaram as decisões do Concílio de Calcedônia em 451 (o quarto concílio ecumênico). Os membros mais moderados entre eles, porém, defendem a teologia "miafisita", que se tornou a oficial para as Igrejas Ortodoxas Orientais. Muitos ortodoxos orientais, porém, rejeitam essa classificação, mesmo como um termo genérico, mas ele é amplamente utilizado na literatura históri...

            Image
            Monumento 1, uma das quatro cabeças colossais encontradas em La Venta, com altura aproximada de 3 metros Olmecas é a designação do povo e da civilização que estiveram na origem da antiga cultura pré-colombiana da Mesoamérica e que se desenvolveram nas regiões tropicais do centro-sul do atual México durante o pré-clássico, próximo de onde hoje estão localizados os estados mexicanos de Veracruz e Tabasco, no Istmo de Tehuantepec, numa zona designada área nuclear olmeca. A cultura olmeca floresceu nesta região aproximadamente entre 1500 e 400 a.C., [ 1 ] e crê-se que tenha sido a civilização-mãe de todas as civilizações mesoamericanas que se desenvolveram posteriormente. [ 2 ] No entanto, desconhece-se a sua exacta filiação étnica, ainda que existam numerosas hipóteses colocadas para tentar resolver esta questão. O etnónimo olmeca foi cunhado pelos arqueólogos do século XX, e não devem confundir-se com os muito posteriores olmecas-xicalancas que ocuparam vários locais do México...
