User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; DIL0001021) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8 Firefox should not offer to save a password until the authentication takes place. It allows you to type in the wrong password and then confirm that you want to save it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. go to http://nosi.aristoi.biz/pvt/home 2. try to log in with a bogus password 3. Expected Results: The software should wait until the next page loads (or until a significant chunk, like the first 40K, is loaded). Then if no 404 error or authentication error is reported, it should pop up with the "do you want to save the password" message. This affects all windows builds, probably others too.
I like this idea. Firefox probably can't detect whether the login was successful, but the user should be able to tell by looking at the resulting page.
