In IE the form tag can have a property of autocomplete set to false and the
form elements won't do that.

| OK another Javascript teaser.....
|
| I have written a function which changes the value in text box 2 when the
| value text box 1 changes.  I call this function in the onchange event of
| text box 1.  By definition of the onchange event this function should run
if
| and only if the value in text box 1 is different when focus is lost to
when
| focus was gained.  When I enter the form the value in text box 1 is blank.
| I start to type in something and IE recognises that what I am trying to
type
| in I've entered before (much like when you attempt to go to a URL that is
in
| the browser history).  I select the entry from the drop down list I get
and
| hit tab to tab off the text box.  When I do this the function is not
called.
| However when I do not select it from the drop down list and type it in
| manually it does call the function!....does anyone know why this is
| happening and what I can do to stop the browser trying to predict what I'm
| typing in ?
