Introduction: The autocomplete attribute is used to provide
help for user during form entry by showing previous entered data in drop-down
list for re-entering data. The autocomplete attribute has two states, on and
off. By default its state is on for form. Now we use autocomplete attribute in
our page. We write the following code
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<body>
<form method="post" autocomplete="on">
First Name <input type="text" name="fname" /><br/>
Last Name <input type="text" name="lname" /><br/>
Account No. <input type="text" name="ac" autocomplete="off" /><br/>
<input type="submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

![autocomplete attribute]()

button. We will note here that, when we do re-entry for First Name and Last Name
then a drop-down list is displayed of previous input matched with new
input text. The autocomplete state if off for account number, so no previous
