[sf-lug] what's the mechanism that a website can use to prevent stored information from filling out a form?

Thanks. That's very helpful.

Wherein:

"Note: The ability for websites to disable the password manager using 
autocomplete = "off"  is being removed in Firefox 30 (bug 956906)"

In fact, I'm using FF 30, so possibly the "feature" is with Firefox and 
not the fault of my bank. I can't recall when my FF changed to 30.

Thanks again,
Michael
