How can I stop the password field being pre-populated on edit?
I have this problem all the time in my rails apps and I still need the correct solution. Whenever a user edits their own record the password field is being populated. I suspect its Firefox as setting @user.password = nil in the edit action doesn't help.
The problem is the password confirmation isn't populated so validation fails due to a miss-match.
I've tried the following:
<%= f.label :password %>
<%= f.password_field :password, :value => "", :autofill => false, :class => 'max' %>
But that doesn't do it. I've also tried :autofill => 'off'
which doesn't work either.
Does anybody have any suggest开发者_运维问答ions? Thanks.
Set autocomplete="off" in the form and the input tags
<form name="blah" autocomplete="off">
<input type="password" autocomplete="off">
</form>
The line f.password_field :password, :value => ''
didn't work for me (on rails 3.1). Although I coud empty the field with f.password_field :password, :value => nil
.

There are two solutions:
tell firefox not to fill those fields;
give password field a different name from "password".
As a field option, you can pass it like this
<%= f.password_field :password, {:autocomplete =>"off"} %>
The HTML options are in their own hash so the syntax should look like this
<%= f.password_field :password, { :value => '' } %>
This should replace the value attribute in the response HTML.
