Old PC CD Boot

Someone asked if there was a way to make an old PC boot from a CD even though the BIOS only recognised floppy drive, A: or B: etc., and hard disk bootable drives.

The answer is yes you can. The tool which allows you to boot from a CD, or indeed many other types of device, is Smart Boot Manager. More information and the download is available here:

Disable Form Auto Complete

Someone asked me if it was possible to disable HTML form auto complete and if so how it is done.

It is possible to disable HTML form auto complete, and it's very easy to do with no need for any complex javascript.

Simply change:

<form name="myForm">...</form>

To:

<form name="myForm" autocomplete="off">...</form>

You can also set autocomplete using javascript:

document.myForm.setAttribute('autocomplete','off')

Amazon has a huge number of Javascript books available here. I hope that that answers your question, if you have any comments please let me know and if you have any other questions which you'd like me to answer for free please send them to Ben Dash at ben.dash@gmail.com
