Hello,
i have a Asp.net V2 login page with a password to enter.
In some case, a user could forget and tell IE to save its password :
How to prevent it ?

Is there a way to disable it ? to block it ?

Or could i create a button that save another text (replace) the cached
password ? the user will be prompted to click the button to remove its
cached password .... how to do it ?

Thanks a lot ...
 
I know of no way to stop a user from saving his password in IE, as that is
his prerogative. I am not sure why you would want to stop a user from doing
this either.

If it can be stopped it will be through client side script, however.

Salut Moi,

I'm not sure this is what you're after, but you might want to try adding
AUTOCOMPLETE="off" to the textbox:

<INPUT TYPE="password" AUTOCOMPLETE="off">

This is supposed to prevent the browser from suggesting values for the
field.

More here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/forms/autocomplete_ovr.asp

"If a Web author does not want users to see the AutoComplete feature for a
password field, the AUTOCOMPLETE attribute can be used to disable the
feature for that single field, as in the following example:

<INPUT TYPE = password
NAME = oPassword
AUTOCOMPLETE = "off"In addition, if a Web author does not want users to see the AutoComplete
feature for any field in a form, the AUTOCOMPLETE attribute can be used to
disable the feature for the entire form.

<FORM AUTOCOMPLETE = "off">
:
</FORM>
"
