[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (RF-4319) InputNumberSpinner: Property to deactivate autocomplete from browser

[Richard Kennard (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-4319?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12459770#action_12459770 ] 

Richard Kennard commented on RF-4319:
-------------------------------------

The implementation of this issue has it outputting, in the default case, an 'autocomplete=on' attribute for the spinner control.

There are two problems with this:

1. There is no need to output this attribute (it is the default browser behaviour)
2. Worse, 'autocomplete' is non-standard HTML so any page that uses the spinner immediately fails W3C validation

These problems may be unavoidable in the 'autocomplete=off' scenario as requested by this feature request, but should be avoidable in the default (majority?) case.

> If you use the control buttons, each change of the number will be saved into the browser's history for this input field. So the next time you get a long list of numbers you don't need.
> there is a input/form attribute (autocomplete=off) which should be the answer for this feature request.
