I am a developer and I have a problem with an input fields - password type - in firefox but no problem with explorer

more options

Hi! I'm a java developer and I have a problem with my java web application. In my application there is a first step - login - where the users insert their username and password; if they say 'yes' to firefox question 'would you like to save the password', when users access to a functionality that provide a form with a password field, the password saved in firefox cronology return in this field and the username field saved return in the field immediately preceding. I think the reason is because the website name on both pages is the same and firefox perform a logical association between two fields of the same type (<input type="password"...>) even if they have different names.

Could you give me news about this topic? Thank you

Sorry for not receiving an answer, but this support forum is for end user support.

Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox.
