# 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`.
