I have a Pikaday date-picker component and it has a list of suggested (previous) values covering the calendar when using Chrome. I've tried autocomplete='off' and autocomplete='new-password' and neither of them seem to fix the issue.

along these lines

<input type="text" class="js-date-picker" id="xyz" autocomplete="new-password" />

So looking at the comments so far either I have completely misunderstood the page that i was looking at (referenced by Liam in the comments) or I've not explained the issue properly.

So On Chrome autocomplete="off" is bypassed. I am getting something like this...

I wondered if the hint, which the referenced page implies would work for any input field, but which, generally all examples use for input of type password (for obvious reasons) autocomplete="new-password" might help. It hasn't helped, and for Chrome (specifically) out of Chrome, Chromium, Firefox & Safari I am still getting the unwanted behaviour.

Does anyone have any hints for what I should try next ?
