First, let me say that I'm extremely irritated that I just spent 15 minutes writing a very detailed question and researching my OS, browser version, etc. only to have it all erased because I didn't "verify" my e-mail before I started typing my question. Firefox: please fix your sign-up and question posting process so this doesn't happen. It should retain your info for a smooth process after you verify. What a waste of time and effort when I'm already frustrated.

ACTUAL QUESTION: I manage two online calendars under one root URL (www.samplepage.com/calendar1 and www.samplepage.com/calendar2). My e-mail address is the user ID for both accounts but the passwords are different.

FF used to associate your username and password with the ENTIRE URL but now it only associates with the root (www.samplepage.com). So, for me, it will only remember one password.

How can I get it to remember BOTH passwords?

Thanks!

That is not possible with the Firefox password manager. You can only save a user name and its password once for a specific domain, so if the name is the same then it doesn't work.
