Tying this in with bookmarks seems strange to me. "form entries organized by the name of the field specified in html get stored in the web database." - this sounds scary. What is the web database? Do you mean the "Web Data" SQLite database under the profile? Saying "the web database" makes it sound like we're sending all your data to Google
Also, under the "security/privacy" considerations section: It sounds like you want to have form autofill, but not actually fill stuff in until the user hits "submit". While nice in theory, I'm not sure how you exactly get this to work without causing unintended consequences. E.g. there may well be some forms that try to do validation before you hit "submit", e.g. submit button is disabled until some javascript runs to make sure that some field is of a proper form - the user will be entirely confused because it will appear to them that the field is properly filled out. I don't think any of this really applies until you start filling out the entire form, rather than just completing the field the user is typing... in that scenario though, I think it would be better to ask the user if they want the form filled in, and then just fill it in. -Ian On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 5:43 AM, Chris G <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > As I read this it will only autofill one field? > > What we need is a bookmark for the web form, stored with which should > be all the field names and the values that were saved by the user when > the bookmark was created.
