Enable browser auto-completion on all sites

Do you visit websites that will not allow you to save your username and password? Does it drive you crazy? Use this free bookmarklet to override the disabling of browser auto-completion.

Instructions: (1) Save bookmarklet below to your bookmarks (right click it), or drag the link to your bookmarks toolbar (2) Go to annoying website (3) Run bookmarklet from bookmarks (4) Enter userid/pass and tell the browser to save your information.

Bookmarklet: Enable Autocomplete

Technical Explanation: It removes the “autocomplete=off” from forms so that Firefox (and probably IE) will save the information for next time you visit. I’ve tested this with Firefox 2.0 on del.icio.us and it worked great.

    didn’t work with my browser and bank site.

    This is the text that popped up after I clicked on the bookmarklet:

    Removed autocomplete=off from 0 forms and from 0 form elements, and removed onsubmit from 0 forms. After you type your password and submit the form, the browser will offer to remember your password.
