I don't know if you can check if autofill has changed a form field. What may work is using a setTimeout (to give the autofiller chance to run) and then reset the background colour:
setTimeout( function() { $("#myfield").css("background-color", "")}, 1000); I have not tried this, so am not 100% sure if it will work. For a designer, disabling autofillers may be desirable, but they are a useful feature of various toolbars. The other way would be to use non-standard field names: <input name="__forename__" type="text"> On Sep 24, 3:46 pm, Eridius <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have been trying to think of a way to track auto fill type stuff.
