by css or javascript? How?

thanks.

Are you talking about the autocomplete that the browser's remembers? Or is this a custom control? There is nothing call dropdown menu in HTML. — epascarello, Sep 25 '12 at 07:18

Use autocomplete="off":

<input type="text" autocomplete="off">

However, this is a non-standard attribute for HTML version < 5. In HTML5 you can freely use this attribute, see the reference:

If that's input of type text then you can do it by specifying attribute autocomplete:

<input type="text" autocomplete="off"/>
