1033413 - Firefox accounts password change unexpected behavior

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1010201

(Cloud Services :: Server: Firefox Accounts, defect)

Description

[George Vidalakis]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140702030201

Steps to reproduce:

I logged in my Firefox account at https://accounts.firefox.com/signin , I clicked the "Change password" link and I filled the "Old password" and the "New password" textboxes at https://accounts.firefox.com/change_password .


Actual results:

When I clicked the "Show" bottom next to the "Old password" or the "New password" textbox both my old and my new passwords were shown. If I clicked one of these two bottoms again both of the passwords were hidden.


Expected results:

Each bottom should make visible / invisible only the password next to it (in my opinion that's the bottoms' expected behavior by users). Or the "Show" bottoms could be replaced with a "Show passwords" bottom (possibly under the textboxes) which will make both passwords visible when it is click.
