As a web developer while designing pages, you may want to disable autocomplete in input fields, especially of HTML form elements. To turn of autocomplete in HTML field by adding autocomplete=off as an attribute,

<input type="text" id="myField" autocomplete="off" />

If you want to turn off autocomplete for all the elements in the form you can add autocomplete off option on the form element itself as shown in below example,

HTML Code Example: 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<form action="/loginpage.php" autocomplete="off">
  <label for="uname">Username</label>
  <input type="text" id="uname"><br><br>
  <label for="pass">Password:</label>
  <input type="text" id="pass"><br><br><br>
  <input type="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
