I need to be able to prevent the Save Password bubble from even showing up after a user logs in.

Autocomplete=off is not the answer.

I have not come across a post that offers a secure solution for this issue. Is there really no way to disable the password bubble in Chrome??

I found there is no "supported" way to do it.

What I did was copy the password content to a hidden field and remove the password inputs BEFORE submit.

Since there aren't any passwords fields on the page when the submit occurs, the browser never asks to save it.

Here's my javascript code (using jquery):

function executeAdjustment(){       
        $("#vPassword").val($("#txtPassword").val());
        $(":password").remove();        
        var myForm = document.getElementById("createServerForm");
        myForm.action = "executeCreditAdjustment.do";
        myForm.submit();
    }
