APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When showing the login page, only the autocomplete for
    j_password is disabled but not for j_username.
    The rationale is that when a user encounters the login page,
    he/she should not see who has previously logged in, for security
    reasons that may be relevant in particular on public computers.
