Firefox does have Form Autocomplete. There is a chance that it was turned off, though. To turn it back on:

  1. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (Tools menu in Windows XP) and then click Options.
  2. Select the Privacy panel.
  3. Set Firefox will: to Use custom settings for history.
  4. Check the box that says Remember search and form history.
  5. Click OK to close the Options window.

If that doesn't work, the form you are trying to use may not support Firefox's auto-complete.
