156458 - YahooGroups password not remembered

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 93776

(Toolkit :: Form Manager, defect)

Description

[Peter Weilbacher]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020529
BuildID:    2002052918

Whenever I reply to a message in YahooGroups' online forums, I get a screen to
verify the password (e.g. above URL). Somehow Mozilla's password/form manager
does not remember those.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Reply to a message in YahooGroups.

Actual Results:  Login page comes up with empty password field.

Expected Results:  Mozilla should prefill the password field.

This is probably related to the always changing URL (the messageNum parameter in
the URL). The form/password manager should be configurable to ignore certain
parts of an URL.

-> invalid

>form method=post action="https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?43ecr8afujp30"
>autocomplete=off name=login_form

"autocomplete=off": this disables the password manager because yahoo wants it.

Any way to override that (for that site)? Because I do want it... It's a real
hassle to have another encrypted file to look it up manually every time.
