You dynamically generate a random name for the credit card field in the HTML
form. Something like:

<INPUT name="CCFIELD" TYPE="HIDDEN">
<INPUT name="/%CCFIELD%/" TYPE="TEXT" SIZE="16">

Then use a timestamp or something similar as follows:
     D random          S             20A   Varying
     D prefix          S              2A   Const('CCN')
     D tmstamp         S              6S 0
     D cardNbr         S             16A

     
     C                   time                    tmstamp
     C                   eval      random = prefix + %char(tmstamp)
     C                   callp     cgiSetVar('CCFIELD': Random)

Then in your CGI program that receives the form with the keyed-in credit
card number, you retrieve the form field name first, then the credit card
field value itself. Something similar to this:


     C                   callp     cgiInit()

     C                   eval      random = cgiGetVar('CCFIELD')
     C                   eval      cardNbr = cgiGetVar(Random)


This is using RPG xTools' CGILIB, but will work the same if you have
CGIDEV2, just change the procedure names.

Subject: [WEB400] How Do I Keep IE From Saving Values

I am building a web page that takes in a credit card number and I am trying
to figure out the HTML code needed to prevent IE (or other browsers) from
saving this field value for the auto fill function.  

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

  Joe
