Hi Spike,

I was pondering the exact same thing the other day. From all the
experiments I made, only FF was able to somewhat reliably remember
passwords. My understanding is that you need a structure with a form,
a login textfield, a password textfield and a submit button:

<form action="...">
<input type="text">
<input type="password">
<input type="submit">
</form>

There _has_ to be a form that submits to the server, otherwise
browsers won't recognise this as a login form. To make things worse,
the login form has to be there in HTML in the page loaded from the
beginning. My attempts to create it in runtime via DOM manipulation
made it invisible to the password completion mechanism.

I'd advise you to use a completely decoupled login form and load your
application only after the login page.
