Auto complete problem

I put a field that i want to hide on a form and unchecked the auto complete and attached an event so that when a value is entered into the field it goes to an external link . When i go to the form in Chrome as soon as i put my email address into the email autocomplete box it enters may name in the hidden field. It doesn't do that in firefox or IE but it does in Chrome. Why would that be ?

I tried on 2 other computers with the same result
Regards

"auto complete " is a standard HTML feature, the functionality it is implemented in the browser, not in WWB.
Some browsers ignore the property intentionally.
