I'm not very happy with the Password Manager not working in many
trivial cases such as when the form has been either produced by an
XSL transformation or generated by a script, so I've done a bit of
digging a have come to the following workaround others may find
helpful, too.
The solution involves using the Custom Buttons [1] extension. It is
not marked compatible with SeaMonkey 2.2 but otherwise works just
fine having the compatibility check turned off (achieved by
installing Add-on Compatibility Reporter [2]).
Now I've created and placed a custom button on my toolbar with the
following code to execute:
let lm = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/login-manager;1"]
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsILoginManager);
let forms = content.document.forms;
for (let i = 0; i < forms.length; i++) {
lm.fillForm(forms[i]);
}
The given code appears to work even on autocomplete="off" forms,
given the login info has already been stored previously. Try if it
would be of any help to you.
Here's the related technical documentation:
