What potential issues can arise when using Firefox with PHP forms, specifically with text and select input fields retaining previous values?

When using Firefox with PHP forms, a potential issue that can arise is that text and select input fields may retain previous values even after the form has been submitted. This can be confusing for users as they may think their changes were not saved. To solve this issue, you can add the `autocomplete="off"` attribute to the form element to prevent Firefox from auto-filling the fields with previous values. 

<form action="submit.php" method="post" autocomplete="off">
  <input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Username">
  <select name="gender">
    <option value="male">Male</option>
    <option value="female">Female</option>
  </select>
  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
