Hi all, I've been struggling a while now to getting various browsers (FF, IE, Chrome) ask the users whether to save the user name and the password typed into a login form. The login process should be done asynchronously, by using an AJAX request.
My first approach of building a qx.ui.form.Form in a standalone app wasnt recognized by any browser as a login form. I figured out that the reason for this might be the fact that qooxdoo doesnt render the qx.ui.form elements inside an html FORM tag, so the browsers are not aware that the two input fields are intended to be a login form. For my second approach I created a separate qooxdoo inline application and placed it within a FORM tag inside a plain html page. The login process works as follows: 1. User types in usrname and pwd and clicks "login" 2. Qooxdoo sends AJAX request to server 3. Server response contains login information (whether login was successful) 4. If login was successful submit the form via the JavaScript submit()-method (the form target is a hidden IFRAME) and forward the browser to the main application page (using window.location.href) The submitting of the form in step 4 causes at least Firefox to display the "save password?" bar at the top. But when calling the login form again the saved username and password are not inserted into the input fields again (autocomplete-attribute set to "on"). The other browsers actually dont even ask to save the password. The only login form that I got the password savers of the browser to work with was a simple HTML page without qooxdoo. Can anybody help?
