Well since we all have this problem I invested some time to write a working jQuery extension for this issue. Google has to follow html markup, not we follow Google
(function ($) {
"use strict";
$.fn.autoCompleteFix = function(opt) {
var ro = 'readonly', settings = $.extend({
attribute : 'autocomplete',
trigger : {
disable : ["off"],
enable : ["on"]
},
focus : function() {
$(this).removeAttr(ro);
},
force : false
}, opt);
$(this).each(function(i, el) {
el = $(el);
if(el.is('form')) {
var force = (-1 !== $.inArray(el.attr(settings.attribute), settings.trigger.disable))
el.find('input').autoCompleteFix({force:force});
} else {
var disabled = -1 !== $.inArray(el.attr(settings.attribute), settings.trigger.disable);
var enabled = -1 !== $.inArray(el.attr(settings.attribute), settings.trigger.enable);
if (settings.force && !enabled || disabled)
el.attr(ro, ro).focus(settings.focus).val("");
}
});
};
})(jQuery);
Just add this to a file like /js/jquery.extends.js and include it past jQuery. Apply it to each form elements on load of the document like this:
$(function() {
$('form').autoCompleteFix();
});
