Hello Perl Monks

Is there any way to deactivate Internet Explorer's password AutoComplete feature using Perl? It seems to be triggered by the use of a password type field (which I need to use). If there is some way to just detect when this feature is turned on, that would be useful too.

You would think the user would know better than to use this feature (on a shared pc) when accessing a database containing their personal information but unfortunately, there are a few people here that need to be protected from themselves.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Greg

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
