Hi Eric, Are you currently using struts2? If so then open ur jsp and type attribute "autocomplete" in textfield or form element and see if it supports or not.
It's obviously a browser issue, but my question was how do u solve in struts2 ? Please advice me the releavent solution, rather than only assuming some theory work for in the practicle current situation.
