I wonder what ryan meant with the Subject line. Maybe it was supposed to
rephrase the error message, but "not" was turned to "now".
Anyway, I just modified my "tag soup DTD" to allow the autocomplete
attribute for <form> and <input> elements. See
http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/html/own-dtd.html
If you use that DTD, you won't be able to use the W3C validator, though,
due to its restrictions. It could be made to digestible by the W3C
validator by removing some elements that you won't be using.
