Hi *,

>From what I understand, having the following DTML and/or HTML tags =
*should* disable IE from caching previously entered values  in form =
fields...

<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Expires', '-1')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Pragma', 'no-cache')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Cache-Control', 'no-cache')">

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE></TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Expires" CONTENT=3D"-1">
<META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Pragma" CONTENT=3D"no-cache">
<META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Cache-Control" CONTENT=3D"no-cache">
</HEAD>

Yet somehow IE remembers these values, and if I begin to enter say "3" =
IE will remembered the previous entered values 3, 33, 311 etc. and =
display a nice little IE drop-down-like-box below a standard HTML text =
input form field with these values.

Is there any way to disable this?

Any help much appreciated.
