Is there a way to prevent browser autofill an input box?

Question

Possible Duplicates:
How do you disable browser Autocomplete on web form field / input tag?
Is there a W3C valid way to disable autocomplete in a HTML form?

My browser automatically fills the register form in my website, which is supposed to be anonymous so it's not a very good sign to users to see their names already on the form.

Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

I could take the input box and simply erase it with javascript but I wanted to know if there was another way round. Thanks

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

That should work.
