Important Browser Compatibility Fix

This update affects all visitors to your website that use Google Chrome’s form autofill features on Google Chrome Desktop.

The developers of Google Chrome have recently been changing the way that the autofill feature works.

A side effect of the change to autofill is that when completing a form with an Address field Chrome will give you the option of choosing an address that you have used before.

This causes a conflict with the Google Maps search box, as autofill does not trigger a search, so the box appears to be filled in even though the user has not selected a place from the drop down list of Google Maps search results.

When this occurs on the TransitQuote booking form it meant that website users were unable to see that they had not selected an address and therefore did not see an online quote.

Until recently there was a simple way to disable autofill on the booking form, however that method is now broken. To address this issue we have now added a workaround until there is an official solution to the problem.

We recommend upgrading to the latest version of TransitQuote Pro as soon as possible to ensure that your customers do not experience this issue.
