+# Disable Auto-Completion For A Form Input
+
+The browser wants to be helpful by making informed suggestions about what
+should be auto-filled into form inputs.
+
+We may not want this behavior. It could be a source of data entry mistakes, an
+annoyance, or just not something we want our users to experience.
+
+We can turn this off at an individual field level with the `autocomplete`
+attribute:
+
+```html
+<input type="email" id="email" name="email" autocomplete="off">
+```
+
+Note: It is `off` and not something like `false`.
