288983 - www.fullerton.edu doesn't autofill passwords

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Camino Graveyard :: OS Integration, defect)

Description

[Mike Pinkerton (not reading bugmail)]

Someone sent this in, i wanted to make sure it didn't get lost.

- go to www.fullerton.edu 
- enter a bogus username/password, save it in the keychain
- close window
- go back to www.fullerton.edu 

we should prefill the uname/password but we don't. I don't see any
autocomplete=off attributes, there aren't multiple password fields that i can
see, and it's not in a subframe. Not sure why this one would be failing.

can someone debug this really quick?

I'm fairly sure this has to do with the fact that they auto-fill the form for
you using JavaScript. For some reason, it seems this might be canceling out our
auto-fill.

Attachment: Testcase

This is a testcase of the issue.

Attachment: Second Testcase

This is a second testcase, using a generic URL. I think this has nothing to do
with JS but rather our interaction with pre-filled forms.

thanks for taking a look!

kindly, the comment in the code tells us:

 // if the server specifies a value attribute (bug 169760), only autofill
 // the password if what we have in keychain matches what the server supplies,
 // otherwise don't.

so WONTFIX, because this is expected behavior according to bug 169760.
