Possible to turn off auto-fill?

Is it possible to turn off the function that auto completes code, namely completing tags and such? I find it gets in the way more than helps.

Hi Josh,

I guess you are talking about input fields, so what I can suggest is to add the attribute autocomplete to the input and set it to off, like so:

<input type="email" name="email" autocomplete="off">

No, not a coding question, it was a question about the treehouse workspace application itself. Nevermind, I'm assuming there's no way to change that setting.

Hi Josh,

I'm actually trying to do the opposite, mines never auto completes the code... I'm wondering if it is a Mac only thing or that if it doesn't do it on the workspace in the treehouse browser... maybe someone knows?
