Google offers to standardize form auto-completion.

Google has introduced support for the experimental attribute autocomplete type into the Chrome browser and now calls upon all webmasters to use this attribute in the description of all online forms. Just add it to the input field, for example, for email it might look like this:

 <input type=”text” name=”field1” x-autocompletetype=”email” /> 

Thus, the site owner can ensure that the Chrome Autofill feature works exactly on this field.

Google is negotiating with other interested parties to standardize this attribute as part of the HTML5 specifications. So far, he has an experimental status, which is underlined by the x-autocompletetype prefix in the full spelling of the x-autocompletetype .

The current standard in this area of RFC 4112 is almost never used and clearly needs to be updated.
