Turn off input box history

[Hightower]

I've created an AJAX thingy majig that shows hints when searching. However, when a user types in something they have previously entered in a search box it shows up on top. I want to disable this - can anybody point me in the right direction?

 

See attached file for example.

Is this for computers you control, or more generally?

Adding the autocomplete="off" attribute to the tag should do it.
