how to get safari to autofill a credit card expiration date month/year select tag?

I have a form with select tags labeled autocomplete='cc-exp-month' and autocomplete='cc-exp-year'. Chrome will autofill them fine but safari does not fill them. Both chrome and safari fill in the input on the same form labeled autocomplete='cc-number'. Changing tag autocomplete tag to the more general 'cc-exp' didn't seem to help in Safari on either field. Does anyone know how to get Safari to fill out the month and year of the expiration date?

For the element that you want to autocomplete, give it the attribute autocomplete="on". Be cautious with this; it's convenient, but as Alex K. said, not a good idea. Before you start dealing with peoples' information, please take the time to learn about security and at least the most common vulnerabilities. Here's a page explaining the risks of autocomplete.

and hackthissite.org is awesome if you're interested in learning how vulnerabilities are exploited.

Best O' luck, I hope this helped.
