The simple tweak in nsLoginManager.js that worked in SM 2.0.x no longer
works in SM 2.1 or 2.2 even if I unzip omni.jar to get at
nsLoginManager.js and then rezip after doing the tweak. This was
described at <http://cybernetnews.com/firefox-remember-passwords/> and
avoided the need for a bookmarklet or button.
Hm, works for me with SM 2.2 - could it be you're missing something
while applying the change? I like the general effect such solution
accomplishes but I don't like the fact I'll need to reapply it after
application updates.
Try opening:
resource:///components/nsLoginManager.js
to see whether your changes appear.
Could you possibly come up with an effective tweak to replace it, one
that still avoids the need for user action at the time of login?
I'll see whether it is possible to override just that file through
an extension.
I've tried number of approaches none of which have worked. I've
read number of docs but given it's an XPCOM component - its
implementation is hidden/protected, and there's doesn't seem a way
to re-register it with a changed implementation. At least I haven't
found how. I've also posted to mozilla.dev.extensions, but I
suspect I'll get no much different answer, if at all.
At the end, even with the patched nsLoginManager.js, passwords on
forms generated by XSL transformation, or by scripts won't get
automatically pre-filled. One would still need the first custom
button suggested to this thread.
