For some reason mailto works in every browser but chrome for me. is it just me or is it not supported anymore? because it had worked for me before
but now it doesn't. not even the W3 schools mailto example works but it does try to but for some reason it doesn't work as seen here.
It's not just my computer I've also tried a different computer in my house and I have also made sure that no chrome extensions are interrupting it.
Update: here is an example of mailto code that doesn't work for me:
<form action="MAILTO:someone#example.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain">
Name:<br>
<input type="text" name="name" value="your name"><br>
E-mail:<br>
<input type="text" name="mail" value="your email"><br>
Comment:<br>
<input type="text" name="comment" value="your comment" size="50"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
<input type="reset" value="Reset">
</form>

I have an HTML form with 3 simple inputs and a submit button like this:
<form action="foo.php" method="post" id="form" name="form" target="_blank" autocomplete="on">
<input type="text" value="" name="firstname" id="firstname" placeholder="First Name" autocomplete="firstname" />
<input type="text" value="" name="lastname" id="lastname" placeholder="Last Name" autocomplete="lastname" />
<input type="email" value="" name="email" id="email" placeholder="Email Address" autocomplete="email" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="send" />
</form>
When I click on the First Name input though and select the First Name to auto-complete, the browser doesn't complete the rest of the form (Last Name and Email). Using the Latest Chrome build: 90.0.44
Is that an expected behavior? How can I make the browser to autofill the whole form?
There is a description of autocomplete attributes here. MDN web docs - autocomplete.
"given-name"
The given (or "first") name.
"family-name"
The family (or "last") name.
email is the correct identifier for it tho. try correcting the others and see if that works for you.
I am creating a form in html, on Dreamweaver cc 2018. For my new website. But every time I use it ,it prints "Internal Server Error". Which means that there is a problem, but no matter how many websites I look for answers on there it never works. Here is my form code.
<form action="myemail#exemple.com" method="get" enctype="text/plain">
Name:<br>
<input type="text" name="name"><br>
E-mail:<br>
<input type="text" name="mail"><br>
Comment:<br>
<input type="text" name="comment" size="50"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
<input type="reset" value="Reset">
</form>
I have tried "get" "post" and "default"
And I am not on a server.
Thanks :-)
If you're trying to send a mail you'll need to use action="mailto:myemail#exemple.com" instead of action="myemail#exemple.com"
I have this form in html5:
<form method="post" action="form.php" >
<input id="fname" name="fname" type="text" value="" required/>
<input id="lname" name="lname" type="text" value="" required/>
<input id="submit" name="submit" type="submit" value="" />
</form>
Sometimes i receive empty fields. Can you tell me why?
It is best practice to include the aria-required attribute too:
<form method="post" action="form.php" >
<input id="fname" name="fname" type="text" value="" required aria-required=”true” />
<input id="lname" name="lname" type="text" value="" required aria-required=”true” />
</form>
Note that older browsers may not support support these attributes. On any browser that doesn't support these attributes, front-end form validation could still be achieved through javascript. You can learn more about javascript form validation here.
Remember it is important to validate input on the server too.
You can't make yours constraints only on the client side. Anyone can send a POST request to your server without using your form easily.
It's possible with all recent browsers to edit the DOM and remove the required part too.
HTML5 Validations are great for helping users but it's not for security/checking.
Here is the code :
<form method="post" action="default.aspx" id="form1" autocomplete="off">
<div class="loginContnet">
<input " name="SC_Login1$txtUserCode" type="text" id="SC_Login1_txtUserCode" class="txtUserCode" autocomplete="off">
<input name="SC_Login1$txtPassword" type="password" id="SC_Login1_txtPassword" class="txtPassword" autocomplete="off">
<input type="submit" name="SC_Login1$btnOK" value="OK" id="SC_Login1_btnOK" class="btnOK">
</div>
</form>
Why all browsers except Mozilla ask save password and how to prevent that?
Indeed, browsers do not give a shit about autocomplete="off" attribute for password saving / restoration.
I did encounter the same problem recently and solved it with a nice shiny and beautiful hack as you can see below. The trick consists in having two fields corresponding to login and password with display: none;, hence the browser believe it is the actual login and password fields! Haha, stupid browser!
<form>
<input type="text" id="email" name="email" size="40" autocomplete="off" />
<input type="text" style="display: none;" name="loginForAutoCompleteDisable" />
<input type="password" style="display: none;" name="passwordForAutoCompleteDisable" />
<input type="password" id="password" name="password" autocomplete="off" />
</form>
Hope this helped!
autocomplete=off only tells the browser not to show suggestions based on your browsing history.
It has nothing to do with save-password
as far as I know, the autocomplete-attribute is used for showing suggestions based on your prior entered values. it has nothing to do with the "save-password"-question. I dont think you can disable the "save-password"-question by html, because it's up to every single client.
The only problem using this attribute is that it is not standard
(it works in IE and Mozilla browsers).
Answer to this question
<form method="post" action="default.aspx" id="form1" autocomplete="off">
<div class="loginContnet">
<input name="SC_Login1$txtUserCode" type="text" id="SC_Login1_txtUserCode" class="txtUserCode" autocomplete="off">
<input name="SC_Login1$txtPassword" type="password" id="SC_Login1_txtPassword" class="txtPassword" autocomplete="off">
<input type="submit" name="SC_Login1$btnOK" value="OK" id="SC_Login1_btnOK" class="btnOK">
</div>
</form>
Sometimes in my web application even I declare form autocomplete is off sometimes its not working and it autocomplete I typed in my inputs.
Can anyone know how to solved this kind of problem.I use chrome by the way.
sample of my code: sometimes its autocompleting my inputs even I declare turn off already..
<form autocomplete="off" method="post">
<input autocomplete="off" type="text" name="name">
<input autocomplete="off" type="text" name="age">
<input type="submit" >
</form>
<form autocomplete="off" method="post">
<input autocomplete="off" type="text" name="name" value="">
<input autocomplete="off" type="text" name="age" value="">
<input type="submit" >
</form>
The solution is simple and working perfectly in all browsers.
Add disabled and autocomplete="off" attribute to the form fields( name, age, etc.)
<form method="post">
<input disabled="disabled" autocomplete="off" type="text" class="name" name="name">
<input disabled="disabled" autocomplete="off" type="text" class="age" name="age">
<input type="submit" >
</form>
On Page Load enable the fields after few miliseconds.
use the below JS CODE
function getRidOffAutocomplete(){
var timer = window.setTimeout( function(){
$('.name, .age').prop('disabled',false);
clearTimeout(timer);
}, 800);
}
// Invoke the function
getRidOffAutocomplete();
This isn't a bug - autocomplete isn't supported by Chrome any more. It's a design decision by their developers and you should design for it rather than attempting to work around it. See my answer to this very similar question.
