156391 - Password manager does not retrieve stored password correctly

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Passwords & Permissions, defect)

Description

[wacheo]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020708
Netscape6
(note: I added "Netscape6" to the useragent string because this site doesn't
work properly without it)
BuildID:    2002070807

In the page at http://ca.ingrammicro.com, if a password is stored in the
password manager, it is not retrieved/displayed correctly.

This problem occurs on all 1.0 nightlies (linux) since 2002-07-01. Mozilla 1.0
works fine.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Goto http://ca.ingrammicro.com
2. Enter a username and password (just make one up, no need to login)
3. Click on "Login"
4. When asked to remember password (by password manager), say "Yes".
5. Go back to http://ca.ingrammicro.com

Actual Results:  When go back to http://ca.ingrammicro.com, the textboxes does
not contain the correct user/pass pair. The username field is empty and
un-editable. (password field have a string but I don't know if it is the correct
password)

Expected Results:  When go back to http://ca.ingrammicro.com, it should have the
stored user/pass ready in the textboxes.

the trunk build (2002070813) also works fine. the problem seems to occurs only
in the branch.

Terri, did you test this on linux, since that's what the reporter was using?

Comment 4

[Terri Preston]

Also wfm linux branch build 2002070907, hmm reporter, do you have any more
details that may be causing this???

Comment 5

Terri, pls try add "Netscape6" to the useragent string. I used this in prefs.js
myself:
user_pref("general.useragent.override", "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US;
rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020708 Netscape6");

Terri, I just tried save the page and test it on my local server. If I comment
out the line focusIt() in BuildMenu1() the password is filled in properly.

Comment 7

[Stephen P. Morse]

I'm confused.  Where is BuildMenu1?  I don't see that anywhere in the source 
tree.

Also, if this working in the trunk (as reporter indicated in comment 1), then 
this is WFM.  This bug base is for trunk problems only and, unfortunately, we 
have no way of reporting branch-only build on open bug reports.  Furthermore, 
it's probably too late to get a change made on the branch anyway.

Comment 8

[Stephen P. Morse]

Oh, I see.  BuildMenu1 is from the web page's content, not from our source.  So 
ignore the first paragraph of my comment above.
