history drop down

[H.Prins]

Does anyone know a way to disable the drop down list for a textfield, I mean that list that records all your previous info you have put into a textfield of that name......

I know a user can disable it in his browser settings, but i would like to be able to do it for them :)

thx

You can't do it with javascript, because one of the security restrictions on javascript is that it can't modify user files. You could do it with a user-authenticated java file, but they would have to choose for it to run.

Well I don't want to come off wanting to control a user too much (as sort of is percepted by Pyro here).

It's because I have a text field that changes color based on a hex value that's entered. The hex value is sent to a function on keyup, and if they select it from the drop down history box, there is no keyup, and therefore no changing of the color.....

thx though :)
