Prompt to save password and username (autofill)

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have a simple application with a field for "Username" and a field for "Password" and a Button to Login. So far so good. My custom login is working very well. 

I have just one problem:

In Safari on Mac I get the prompt to save my login credentials after a complete page refresh or by leaving the page (application). I am not getting this prompt right after I press "Login" as I am used to on other pages. In Chrome it works correctly. 

Is there some modification or workaround for this? 

 

Thanks a lot,

Andreas

Hello,

yes I have tried searching the forum but this posts do not help me out. 

My problem in Safari is, that the browser is NOT asking me to store my password/username. He asks me when I am leaving the Application (Refresh page, Browse to other domain). But this could be minutes or hours later.... so it is confusing why the storing password prompt comes so late (in safari). It works in chrome on MacOS.

So, I have created a small sample project which is demonstrating this Issue. But be aware this only happens in MacOS Safari. 

The App has a Main Form and 2 Sub-Frames (= FrmLogin and FrmPortal). After Login (any credentials) you will be navigated to FrmPortal. You can use this app as long as you want without prompt to store the password. On Browser refresh or on leaving the page you will get the prompt?

Any Ideas? I know, I do not use the UniGui Login-Form but it should work also this way I think so.

Thanks a lot for you help! Andreas
