User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1a1pre) Gecko/2008070902 Minefield/3.1a1pre Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1a1pre) Gecko/2008070902 Minefield/3.1a1pre I have a device with an embedded web server which for silly reasons asks for a username/password (modal prompt on screen, not an HTML field), but not entering anything and just pressing return works fine. Firefox then offers to remember the password, and if I click "Remember" then the password bar doesn't disappear as per normal and I get the following in the error console. Error: [Exception... "'Can't add a login with a null or empty password.' when calling method: [nsILoginManager::addLogin]" nsresult: "0x8057001e (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)" location: "JS frame :: file:///data/tparker/firefox/components/nsLoginManagerPrompter.js :: anonymous :: line 628" data: no] Source File: file:///data/tparker/firefox/components/nsLoginManagerPrompter.js Line: 628 If Firefox can't remember empty passwords, then it needs to not offer to remember them at all, possibly with some notification pointing out that it can't remember said password because it's empty. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login to device with empty username/password 2. Ask Firefox to remember it. 3. Exception! Actual Results: Exception, no remembering, persistent password bar. Expected Results: No password bar to start with, or remembering that an empty password should be given to this device.
