Autocomplete-attributes for Login and registration form

1 Initial Problem

The BITV Testcase 1.3.5a fails. 

Please consult the materna report, p. 53 -55, fig. 27-29.

2 Conceptual Summary

Users are required to enter their User Name at the login screen and adjecent screens.

Autocomplete attributes talk to browsers and convey the purpose of a field this unburdens the browser from making educated guesses.

These autocomplete attributes are only to be used if I myself fill in the following field at the following locations. This must not be used i.e. in the user administration. 

  1. The Login Screen needs autocomplete-attributes for the username
  2. The registration form should have autocomplete-attributes for username, given-name , family-name, email.
  3. Password Assitance Form needs autocomplete-attributes for the username and email but NOT for the Password itself.
  4. Form for those who forgot their username need and automplete-attribute email.

Please consult the list of autocomplete-attributes is here https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG22/#input-purposes
