Globally turn off autocomplete for "force selection" fields

Post by philmills »

Modern browsers tend to break lookup functionality on lookup fields which have force selection enabled.
When a user is entering data into a lookup field he has previously used, he will get two drop downs - one from the lookup, and another generated by the browser.
If he uses the browser's drop down, the underlying lookup id is not passed when saving the record,which in turn generates an error.

It would be nice if autocomplete would be disabled by default for form feilds which use lookups.

There is a new advanced setting "Add autocomplete='off' attribute to forms" in v2023.
