autocomplete=off in FireFox

November 1, 2007 5:32 PM

Is there really no way to ignore a form's autocomplete='off' in FireFox 2? All options seem to no longer work. I know I'm being insecure. That's fine.

There's a Password Saver bookmarklet

Use Greasemonkey to remove that form attribute?

I was about to say use the bookmarklet linked above. Drag the "Remember Passwords" onto your toolbar. Click it on a web page before you click submit. When you click submit, Firefox will then ask if you want to save the password.

Does the bookmarklet work with Yahoo?

Yes. That's actually what caused me to seek it out in the first place.

I use it too. Works fine on every version of Firefox I've ever had- I'm up to 2.0.0.9 now.
