http://www.microsoft.com/sitebuilder/magazine/ICPIE5.asp Make User Registration Easier with AutoComplete AutoComplete speeds the collection of demographic information by making it easier to fill out online forms. AutoComplete provides a drop-down list of items that the user has previously entered in a particular text box on a Web page. When the user selects the item, it is automatically put into the field (except for password fields). The feature is very useful on its own, but its real power shines through when the benefit is transferred between Web sites. Once you mark your input tags with AutoComplete attributes, your users won't have to retype common elements -- such as names, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses -- because they will have already filled in this information on someone else's site. Internet Explorer stores the form field entries in a secure, client-side store. When using AutoComplete, you can keep your old field names as they were. This way, you do not have to make any changes to your server and database processes that handle the form information. All you need to do is add a new VCARD_NAME attribute to an input element, followed by the appropriate vCard identifier. Like the table-layout:fixed attribute discussed above, you can add this attribute without affecting performance in older browsers or browsers from other companies. The original HTML becomes See the feature article on AutoComplete for more details. Brand Your Favorites Here's a no-brainer: If you want your logo to appear next to the link to your site in the browser when users add your site to their favorites, just add a file called favicon.ico in the root of your domain (e.g., www.microsoft.com/favicon.ico). Internet Explorer will automatically look for this file and will put your icon next to all favorites and quick links that come from your site. If you can't put it at the root of your server, you can specify another location on a per-page basis by adding this tag to your page: While you're at it, you can also add a button or link in your page that prompts your users to add your page to their favorites. If they confirm, your page is automatically added to their favorites. You can copy and paste the code below right into your page to try this out.
