aria-autocomplete

Token

Describes what kind of autocomplete an input offers: 'inline' completes the text in place, 'list' shows suggestions in a popup, 'both' does both, and 'none' offers none. It's set on the textbox of a combobox so screen readers can tell users that suggestions exist. It describes the prediction model, not whether suggestions are showing right now.

Values
none (default)
No suggestion is offered.
inline
The input is completed inline as the user types.
list
A collection of suggestions is presented in a popup.
both
Both an inline completion and a list of suggestions.
Used on
