Yes, that was the bug I reported in http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailaid=3614004group_id=51719atid=4643 12 However, it's fixed in #1230. It is indeed, though on the tracker page it's still marked as Resolution: None. Hurray! And indeed to that too.!

Remember this password
Using Firefox on a Windows XP machine I sometimes encounter websites where, when you have to provide a username and password, these are automatically filled in for you. I do not know whether this feature is provided just by the browser or by the browser's interaction with a helper application in Windows. Does NetSurf for RISC OS supply any hooks, wimp messages or whatever, whereby such a feature could be provided using a helper application? If not, then maybe some approximation could be kludged using function keys. -- Gavin Wraith (ga...@wra1th.plus.com) Home page: http://www.wra1th.plus.com/

Or if you are paranoid about having visible passwords on your system, CrypStor by Frank de Bruijn will store passwords encrypted. You can export these passwords as a text file, then drag and drop the relevant one into NetSurf, then delete the export file. It's at http://aconet.org/crypstor/ I didn't find it totally intuitive to start with, but I now find it extremely useful. Probably OT here, though.
