Hello Firefox Support Team,

I’m experiencing an issue where Firefox is autofilling form fields even when the autocomplete attribute is explicitly set to values like "off" or "nofill".

<form>

   <label for="username">Username:</label>
   <input type="text" id="username" name="username" autocomplete="nofill">
   
   <label for="password">Password:</label>
   <input type="password" id="password" name="password" autocomplete="off">

</form>

Despite trying several variations, Firefox continues to autofill these fields.

Could you clarify:

Is this expected behavior in Firefox? Are there specific guidelines or workarounds to prevent autofill in cases where it is not desired? Are there any browser settings or configurations that could override the autocomplete attribute? - Autocomplete is needed for some fields but not for others, so it cannot be controlled at the settings level Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Hello.

In about:config the keyword.enabled false does not work anymore.

So how on earth do we stop this stupid search option in the url bar. When i open a new tab, i'll get on a firefox tab. In the middle I can search (in the search bar), but after typing 1 letter, the search is moved to be in the address bar. WHY????

How to stop this madness?

Thank you for an answer
