Description:
------------
Using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5+ and having set IE forms autocomplete feature to on, both autocomplete systems overlaps as seen on 

http://www.notfound.org/takealook/overlap.png

This could be fixed using autocomplete attribute on form tag or an input(I dont know if it is part of any standard or not) and using value off:

<FORM AUTOCOMPLETE="OFF" ...>/<INPUT AUTOCOMPLETE="OFF" ...>
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/forms/autocomplete_ovr.asp

I know is not a PHP problem what the client does with forms but it would be nice if you can help people like me that use this IE autocomplete feature.

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

This is a known issue, and the JS script itself actually tries to turn this feature off. This does not seem to work in all browsers as it seems... I have also checked that page in IE, and the usual autocomplete was disabled for me... The reason we are not using that HTML attribute is that: it is not standard and we would still like to enable the form element to remember items for other searches, so only our autocmoplete will turn off the default autocomplete. I don't know though, why that is not working in some IE versions.
