User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 Build ID: 20130107224407 Steps to reproduce: after connecting to a wifi location, I am redirected to a login form. After filling in a username and password, I hit login. Firefox never prompts me whether it wants to remember the login or not, so when I come back to that login page, the username and password are not auto filled. Actual results: I have no exceptions in the settings for remembering stored passwords. Other browsers such as rekonq are able to remember and autofill these forms, so firefox not doing it is a bug. Expected results: <form name="index" action="https://wireless.unm.edu/arubasec/index.html?cmd=login&switchip=10.80.0.50&userip=10.80.236.7&usermac=00:08:ca:69:0f:3d" method="post" autocomplete="off" onSubmit="return validate();"> <label for="username"><strong>NetID: </strong></label><input name="auth_user" type="text" size="20"><br /> <label for="password"><strong>Password: </strong></label><input name="auth_pass" type="password" size="25"><br /> <label for="submit"> </label> <input type="submit" value="Login" name="Submit" ;"> </form>
Could you test with a fresh profile, please: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles Same behavior?

This is the expected behaviour when the autocomplete="off" attribute is used.

It still happens after I try it on a fresh profile
Status: RESOLVED → UNCONFIRMED
Resolution: DUPLICATE → ---
It's normal because Firefox doesn't store the password due to autocomplete="off".
