1257534 - Okta single-sign-on fails to fill in my password

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1171114

(Toolkit :: Password Manager, defect)

Description

[Jared Wein [:jaws] (please needinfo? me)]

STR:
- Have username and password stored in password manager
- Go to the mozilla Okta single sign on page
- Notice that:
--- Username/email address is auto-filled
--- Password field is empty
--- Focus is placed in the password field

Notes:
- If I move focus to the username field (via shift+tab), then move focus back to the password field (via tab), the password gets filled in and I can then hit Enter and sign in.

This seems to be a bug in either our Okta override code or maybe we don't fill in a field if it has focus?

I get this too, but not always, which made me think it could be a timing issue.

If someone can figure out why it works sometimes and not others e.g. with signon.debug=true then it's probably easy to fix. I suspect the main thing is that they're still messing around with stuff using JS.
