Property Value

Type Description
PasswordAutofillContentType

Remarks

If the editor’s AutofillContentType property is set to Password, the user can automatically fill the editor with an appropriate password. Note that the device should have an enabled autofill service that contains the required values (names, dates, passwords, and so on).

Example

The markup below contains a form with the Login, Password, Email, and Birth Date data fields. A user can tap the editor to automatically fill these fields with available values.

Use an editor’s AutofillContentType property to specify a hint that helps an autofill service determine how to populate the editor with user data.
