How to handle autocomplete in browsers

Sometimes we face a problem while opening forms. There are some fields in the form that are always pre-filled whenever that form is opened. This is because of the auto-fill feature of the browser.

To solve that simple put the autocomplete="off" in form tag like below:

<form name="frmUser" method="post" action="test" autocomplete="off">
Name : <input type="text" name="name" />
</form>

According to the mozilla https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_Turn_Off_Form_Autocompletion this happens because we are using the the two fileds in our form i.e. NAME and ADDRESS. 
Like in the above form we have used the label Name. To resolve this issue we can do the following:
Simply include the name using span as below

<form name="frmUser" method="post" action="test" autocomplete="off">
<Name : <input type="text" name="abc" />
</form>

So, before making forms to production make sure to change the NAME and ADDRESS like above
Enjoy the autocomplete="off" :)

Getting height and width of image in Java

Yesterday I was working on something that requires manipulation of image for getting its properties. After searching over the internet I found a very intersting class on Java i.e ImageIO and BufferedImage class. These classes are good enough to manipulate images. there are many other claases also. But what I need i got it from these. I found many developers searching over internet for getting properties of image and there is no good small example for that. Thats why I thought why not creating a simple code to manipulate the image and help the developers. Here is the small code that helps to get the height and width of the image. Enjoy it!! import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; public class GetImage { public static void main(String[] args) { try { File f = new File("E:/Vinod/Docs/Pics/krishna_01.jpg"); BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(f); int height = image.getHeight(); in...

We need the following things to work: CA certificates including, private key and certificate. In this article, we are using the GoDaddy wild card certificate. Spring Boot application OpenSSL library Convert the certificate and private key to PKCS 12 First of all, we need to convert the CA certificate to .p12 format . We need to have OpenSSL on the system to work with command. Also, we need to have all files in the same directory where we are running this command. The command required to covert the same: openssl pkcs12 -export -in [ceritificate-name] -inkey [private-key] -name [host] -out [new-file.p12] Here replace the values: [ceritificate-name] with...

First Time Deployment of war file to IBM Cloud

In this post, I will put a very basic deployment of Java war file on the IBM Cloud . Previously, IBM Cloud was known as IBM Bluemix . But in this post, I will prefer using the IBM Cloud and not the bluemix. I was facing problem while deploying the war file on the IBM Cloud for the first time. I am not a DevOps person who knows about the servers as well. But my job was to deploy the application on the IBM Cloud I need to do it. So, I tried googling around but have no idea about how to do it. There are some examples are given but they are not so basic to be understood by a developer who wants to deploy the application in Cloud. But I manage to do it. And I will explain all the steps that are needed to deploy the application to the Cloud. The application I am going to deploy is the Spring Boot application. Requirements 1. IBM Cloud account. 2. IBM Bluemix CLI 3. war file (spring-boot application) IBM Cloud  Setup After signing for IBM Cloud, go to the IBM Cloud Dashboard...
