browser doesn't autosuggest my username + password.
-
hello, asp.net, regular form authentication. I want to make sure that IE / firefox suggest my password by auto filling the user and password text boxes, so I don't have to fill those in all the time. what do I have to do? I guess the buttons need some sort of clientID so that the browser recognize them as username/password fields? note: - it's not about making the form authentication cookie persistent (aka remember me) - I don't want to store the credentials in a separate cookie, I just want to use the browser functionality. thanks, Niko

AFAIK, that is completely controlled by browsers and you have no access on it.

but how does the browser knows this? somehow a browser can recognize a login form.

You want Browser user id and password would fill automatically or what ? we don't have any control on them. You can stop them to prompt and user should logged with the credentials that they provide in your application.

I don't completely understand your answer. Yes, I want my browser to auto-complete the username and password boxes. chrome can do this. when logging in to a site, protected with form authentication. chrome will suggest you to save the credentials that you have used to authenticate. The next time when you visit the site, both fields are filled in automatically by the browser.
