Right. I am just wanting to match the inline behavior... using the omnibox these days I tend to notice when I have to down arrow into things to complete, so it's definitely a pain point for in-page autocomplete. -Ben On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at 9:56 AM, Peter Kasting pkast...@google.com wrote: On

Mac browsers (Safari and Camino, at least) allow the user to auto-fill from their me card in the OS X Address Book application, containing name, address, and phone number. This would be a nice feature to provide to users who have grown accustomed to the functionality. Is there any mechanism to

For the mac case, we can probably query this service to populate the autofill database before the first form is filled out. The major question I have is, what happens when the user edits our copy of the personal information (or the other after we've copied it)? Should we make these copies

One security concern: Autofill should not give users information to the page until the user makes some gesture to accept the autofill choices. For the existing autofill, this is done by having the user choose from the drop down menu. The page can read the value of an INPUT field once it is set,

The current design keys off autofill after the user enters a value in the name field. A drop down menu is shown allowing the user to select which profile to autofill. If the user does not select a profile, the form will not be autofilled (using AutoFill++). I'll try to clarify this in the doc.
