When visiting the location I got a pop up asking what username to enter, giving me 2 choices of '1' - im assuming this came from the quantity field. I then tried removing everything from the menu (tools, form manager) and revisiting the link, same thing occured. I was reduced to using IE to get the form to open with the values unchanged. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Pay someone via paypal, save the info so that it remembers the username and password 2. Pay someone else 3. Look as the values are changed as the page loads. Expected Results: Left the values alone as they already had something in them. Removed the stored values when I pressed remove all stored info in the form manager.
Sounds similar to bug 208358.
It's similar, but I don't think it's the same thing exactly. However, it may be. Is there a password field on this page you are using?
Yes, there was a username and password at the bottom of the form. I cant get the HTML of it untill I win another auction on ebay, but it was the page generated by the "pay seller" link on the winning auction page. I will update when I get one again.
This is a bug I've seen before. The problem is that it doesn't seem to be able to tell there are two forms here, so when it saved the username/password, it saved everything. I can confirm, though not in the testcase I'm building. Don't know what's wrong with it. This also seems related to bug 131913 (as in, that bug fix would be a good workaround for this one

Ever confirmed: true
I also encountered the same bug - in bugzilla itself :) When I loged in as administrator, and go to users list, and click on use to edit him - username and realname shown are mine. I also had to use IE for this.. :(
The most interesting thing is that in the page source I can see correct values in some fields (<input size="64" maxlength="255" name="user" value="correct@email.here">), and the form shows incorrect value for this field (my own email).
